Margo,
Did you order the interferon yourself from Roadrunner or did your vet order?  
Thanks.

  I recently ordered Interferon Alpha from RoadRunner, and paid about $42 for 
two months worth. I asked for a strength of 120 mgs/ml, as Gribble is not very 
co-operative, and a .25 ml dose is less for him to spit out. So far, so good. 
He starts his second "on" week on Saturday. He's also getting DMG, B complex, 
and Lysine, for a URI that keeps hanging on. He will start ImmunoRegulin next 
week, I think.

  Sadly, I'm currently away from him so can't say first hand how he's doing, 
but he has improved since his diagnosis.

All the best,

Margo

   It needs a prescription. I did the "legwork" or calling to see if they 
offered it, and in what form. I decided what I wanted, and I think they called 
my Vet to authorize. Or, my Vet called them after I talked to both. Sorry, I 
don't remember specifically. The ImmunoRegulin is not prescription, but needs 
to be given IV, so I went thru my Vet anyway.
