Guest guest Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 > > Looking for pros and cons of ViraStop versus Valtrex? I never used Valtrex, so I can't really comment much. I have read that it is only good for herpes virus, altho on another message board there were links posted that it might be good for other viruses. Valtrex " suppresses " the virus. Virastop " eliminates " the virus. So far as I know, there are side effects with Valtrex that are not present with Virastop. Some kids might not tolerate Virastop. Virastop does not require rx. Good luck. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 This is the one and only time I have not agreed with Dana... My son has been on Valtrex for six months now, and pushes out Viruses at least once a month (he does get sick with a high fever), however,I have not heard that they only suppress the virus. In a regular dose for people with Herpes it does, but not with a high dose for ASD kids-it actually pushes out many viruses. We have viral panels to prove it. I will post more when I get the info from my DAN doc on exactly how it works and how it is different from Virastop. danasview <danasview@...> wrote: > > Looking for pros and cons of ViraStop versus Valtrex?

Feel free to disagree with me any time you want! > My son has been on Valtrex for six months now, and pushes out Viruses at least once a month (he does get sick with a high fever), This sounds to me like his immune system is improving. Are you aware of any information that Valtrex eliminates viruses? All the info I have indicates that it suppresses only. >>regular dose for people with Herpes it does, but not with a high dose for ASD kids-it actually pushes out many viruses. I am aware of several children who were able to eliminate the viruses with Valtrex, but it still seems to me that it is an improved immune system, not the Valtrex. I could be wrong tho! But thanks for writing this. A while back a doctor offered to write me an rx for Valtrex for my son, and I declined because I wanted to try naturals first. The naturals are working, and I would not want to give my son " high " doses of that medication. > I will post more when I get the info from my DAN doc on exactly how it works and how it is different from Virastop. This would be very good. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 >>> Looking for pros and cons of ViraStop versus Valtrex? Thanks, Melinda I haven't used Valtrex but have used ViraStop. The ViraStop is more 'natural' and works with your own body, which is in line with my personal comfort zone. So I tend to try those things first. Then if that doesn't work sufficiently, go on to something else. ViraStop helped clear out some virus in my system I wasn't even aware of was there. I did a bout of the high dose/short-term ViraStop. Since then, my migraines have dropped off considerably. I mean, I no longer HAVE to have my pain medication nightly...I can go a good week or more now without it. And former known head pain triggers aren't acting as triggers anymore. Mega-cool! I've heard good reports and improvement on both Valtrex and ViraStop. However, I don't know nearly as much about Valtrex and its mode of action as I do about the ViraStop. It is pretty interesting that quite a few of the dan doctors are recommending ViraStop even if they were not keen on using enzymes instead of a GFCF diet. You could always use both too. You don't have to commit today to only one of those options. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 OK, what is a high dose/short term treatment look like, I'd like to help get rid of my migraines and I was thinking of trying this with my son who is 4.5 and 35 lbs. I know he has issues for sure but I might too. Kathy ----- Original Message ----- >>> Looking for pros and cons of ViraStop versus Valtrex?
