Margaret, a PS to Michelle's email--
Revival's tel no is 800 786 4751.
While I sadly did not order the Immuno regulin in time to be able to use
it, the Revival people were good to deal with and the IR arrived at both
vet clinics that I had it sent directly to when it was supposed to (ie
overnighted by Fedex). I had never ordered it before and neither vet had ever
used it but they were both very positive about doing so and liaised with me
about the protocol/how much to use---it comes with directions in any case
(although I haven't seen those because it's at the clinics).
At least I now have it on hand should Mickey (or the NJ FeLV kitty I
will be getting soon) need it.
Here's also a copy of the relevant excerpts of what I emailed to Dr
Dodin who was going to be administering the IR--there's some info you may
find useful, Margaret.
Good luck. I'm sending positive healing vibes for your sweet Misty.
Kerry
Dear Dr Dodin
Here are the 3 articles that give background on Immunoregulin
for FeLV cats.
(It is given by IV.) I placed an order with Revival Animal
Health this morning for 5ml of ImmunoregulinEqstim, and it will be shipped
today, overnighted to Abell, marked for your attention, so should be there
tomorrow (Wednesday). It will come in a "Polar" box, and will need refrigeration
when it arrives.
(They said a cat of 8lb is administered between 0.25 and 0.5
ml each time.)
There appear to be 2 possible protocols--4 times in first 2
weeks, then once a week till stabilized, then monthly recommended thereafter for
maintenance; OR once a week. Please let me know what you think is best for
Flavia once you've had a chance to consider.
THE ARTICLES:
The site below is worth looking at too--an email
from a web list member, Kyle, who had researched and used it.
Many thanks again,
Kerry M.
