I am using immuno regulin and Alferon, ( natural
interferon) I am not using the Acemamman.
My felv kitty has been asymptomatic and these are
basically prophylactic treatments, I do know the
pred ( and I would probably use the
prednisolone) doe help the rbs destruction,
depending upon the cause. I used the I.R per
protocol initially IV and am now doing .5cc IM q
month like they are doing for the FELV cats in the FELV area at Best Friends.

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?"

been shown to have any demonstrable benefit in controlled studies."
