Guest guest Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 My recomendation would be to take your children to a pedatric gi specialist that is dan-friendly, if you have access to in your area - and get an actual perscription for an enzyme custom to your child. I know a lot of parents on these boards use either kirkman's dpp-iv enzyme or houston's enzymes. In the past, I used the kirkman brand for my son who has pddnos, which worked well but wasn't strong enough until I got a perscription for my son for creon 10. It was the one that took the horrid smell out of my son's bowels. Not to mention, with a perscription, it's covered by insurance. Purchasing both kirman's and houstons are very expensive over time, especially with two children - so for you it would be double the cost. If your child had a scope as you mentioned below, go back to that doctor and ask for a script. best of luck to you. > > I have two sons (PDD) and I want to do enzymes.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 If you are intersted I have 2 boxes of SCD enzymes, pepitizyde and no fenol from houstonni both SCD ones, but unfortunately should have ordered the rice bran ones , I have used one capsule from the no fenol, the other is still not used (though opened) if you or anyone else would like them I would be happy to send them to you free if you cover postage (unless of course you are in UK in which case no problem), seems a shame to waste them and iwas thinking of posting an ad for this reason on this and the biomediacl board, best wishes, Josie > > We tried V-gest by enzymedica and both boys got very loose stools and > > one was vomitting.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Houston has SCD enzymes, the chewables are a small dose...I'd try those. Google Houston Nutraceuticals. My daughter was diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus and still found the Zyme Prime enzyme very helpful...first formed stools in decades.
