Offered as information 
This was in response to my inquiry about treating with immunoreglin

>>>Re: immunoreglin ~ most of the FeLV eexperts feel that it has not been shown 
>>>to have any positive benefit for cats with FeLV.  Examples: 

"My hospital was involved in a nationwide testing of Immunoregulin. The 
clinical trial was cancelled midway thru the trial because their own clinical 
staff said things were not looking positive. Immunoregulin is IV, and we used 
it at 0.5cc once a week. You have to shake the bottle really well to mix 
thoroughly. There isn't really any downside to it, but it will not help any 
more than interferon or staph lysate. Your patient needs steroids to help 
prevent the RBC destruction." 
--------------------

"In the interim between posting my question and reading your reply, our little 
cat became acutely febrile (106.3) and was hospitalized overnight on fluids, 
antibiotics and Interferon. She kicked her fever within 24 hours, and is now 
home on daily cefadrops with Interferon. We are also going to try Immunoreglin 
and Acemannan with this little peanut...Do you have any experience with 
Immunoreglin or Acemannan?" 

>>> Do you have any experience with Immunoreglin or Acemannan? <<< "Neither 
>>> have been shown to have any demonstrable benefit in controlled studies."
