I agree with Gloria. LTCI, Acemannan, etc. are more for immune and symptom support in the absence of trying anything more curative, while the sodium ascorbate (vitamin C) used intravenously has the power to permanently destroy viruses and is not just administered for immune support, though it is also a powerful immune enhancer as well. Again, for info on how vitamin C accomplishes destruction of a virus see Klenner's Clinical Guide to the Use of Vitamin C, http://www.seanet.com/~alexs/ascorbate/198x/smith-lh-clinica l_guide_1988.htm.
It is important to work with a vet in the implementation of this therapy to make sure that the amounts of vitamin C and fluid used and the rate with which they are administered are appropriate for the size of the cat because while this therapy is considered extremely safe, nothing is ever inert and one should always err on the side of caution. My vet has indicated a willingness to consult with other vets about the protocol should it be necessary. I can also share the protocol but would never advocate attempting the drips outside of the supervision of a vet.
