Virbagen Omega..Lance?
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 Jane
Re: Virbagen Omega..Lance?
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. Consciousness is Causal and Physicality is its Manifestation.

Re: Virbagen Omega..Lance?
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.
