RE: Immunoregulin

[MacKenzie, Kerry N.]

Title: Message

Hideyo, here's the package I made up from  FeLV list info last year, which I sent to "Ken" for Max, and a few others. See articles at end. I was about to try IR on Flavia but I was too late. Her PCV was very low. Good luck. hugs, Kerry     Here's the name & tel # of the supplier (Revival Animal Health in Iowa) who fedexed it to 2 clinics for me overnight in July. (Total per 1 package inc shipping was $50---relatively inexpensive,) Both the vets I used/found were willing to try it even tho they had never used it before. I had to help one of them figure out the protocol using the info you'll see here. While I haven't yet had time to organise all the following into one coherent report--it's a number of emails rolled into one--I think it does contain some very background info including 3 articles.. IR INFO: Revival's tel no is 800 786 4751. (Revival is the supplier I used.) 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 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.
