>From what I've read I believe that they only give the
drug IM once per month.  They did not mention
following a protocol like the one for the IV
administration.

About a week after my first email they did sent this
information:

Hi Linda, 
 
Here is some more input from one of our staff vets. 
 
"Not all of the cats get it.  If her cats are adults
and relatively healthy, I would not recommend it.  We
give the immunoreglan IM, but this is off label use,
so some vets may not be willing to do this.  It is
hard to tell if it helps the cats or not."


I really like the idea of the IM administration too,
but after reading this email I'm not sure what to do. 
I discussed this with my vet but she has never used
the immunoregulin before, either IV or IM, so she's
basically leaving the decision regarding using the
drug up to me.
