Virbagen Omega..Lance?

2007-05-29 Thread Jane Lyons

I spoke to my homeopathic vet today and she
does not know about Virbagen Omega but
said she would be very interested in researching it.

Lance can you give me any contact info that I can forward to her?

Also ...I was reading about Immuno Regulin on the Home Page for this
website. Has anyone any experience with it?

Thanks for your help, again

Hi Jane,
Tell your vet to contact my specialty clinic about the Interferon 
Omega.  It's been a while, but hopefully Michelle Rose is still there.  
She was great about compiling an FDA packet for vets that wanted to 
apply for special dispensation for it.  (It has been approved for 
veterinary use in Europe, but not in the US).  I'm sure they would be 
happy to answer any questions about it's use.  Here's the paste from the 
email I wrote about contacting them:


 For anyone interested in starting the process of obtaining Feline
Interferon, (Virbagen Omega)...

My vet's liaison, Michelle Rose, at Veterinary Medical and Surgical
Group in Ventura CA (805-339-2290)has made an FDA packet that she will
fax out to anyone's vet who is interested in starting the special
dispensation process.  She says everything they need to know will be in
there, and of course they can call her if there are further questions.
Since only vets can apply, only they, or their offices should call.  If
she's not available, have your vet leave their voice and fax numbers on
her voice mail. If you have any trouble, email me directly and I'll call
her.

In the meantime, (or if you decide not to acquire the IO, it's very 
expensive), you might want to start MeMe on oral Interferon Alpha.  IA 
is used to boost immune response in humans suffering with cancer and 
does seem to have some benefits for our kits as well.  IO is suspected 
to be more beneficial, (it's derived from feline dna, rather than 
human), it's hoped that cats won't develop immunity to it's effects.  My 
vet also suspected that the oral might be beneficial for stomatitis as 
well.  It is inexpensive and readily available.  There are several 
different protocols used.  Some people use a pulse protocol, (7 days 
on 7 days off for example).  I used to give it whenever my felv kids 
were exhibiting symptoms.  Usually the dose is 1cc daily, but I'd give 
them up to 3cc when warranted.  There is a ton of info about both 
interferons in our archives.


Several list members have had good results with IR.  Cindy used it subq, 
(rather than the recommended IV), to alleviate unexplained fever 
spikes.  From what I understand about it, it's a bacteria that when 
administered causes the immune system to kick in against it and 
theoretically battle whatever is causing symptoms.

Yup, my little darling Sammy Sam is on Interferon but I'm not sure  
which.  Duh.  I'll find out tomorrow when we go in for chemotherapy.

Jane,

I just found a website on stomatitis.  It's www.dr-addie.com/ 
stomatitis.html#top


It's British but still very useful as it discusses the disease and  
feeding and treatments and also includes references to American labs.
