Re: Importation of drugs

No, this in Interferon Alpha but is is natural interferon made from live donors, not the Interferon alpha that you can buy here which is made with recombinant cells.  The recombinant is made from only one strain of cells and the natural stuff is made from numerous donors.  It seems to work a broad spectrum antibiotic.  It also had a positive effect on lymphocyte depletion which recombinant interferon does not.   I could attach a copy of if the list allows attachments (176kb pdf file) or I could send it to you directly if you are interested.   Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2005 12:07 PM Subject: Re: Importation of drugs Are you talking about interferon omega, also called Feline Interferon or Virbagen Omega? A few of us have imported that, and we have all the forms in electronic version, and Nina's vet has put together a packet she sends out to anyone interested. Basically, the vet needs to send an application to the FDA for special dispensation. The FDA then takes a month or two to approve it, sends the approval to the vet, and the vet sends that to Abbey Vet in England with the order. Michelle
