Re: Acemanan availability (was need prayers for my baby Dharma again pleease!!)

two different drugs and there was never a problem getting I-R. The 
thing that is hard to get is feline interferon (virbagen omega), which has to 
come with special dispensation from the FDA from overseas (though Hideyo has 
gotten around it). Acemannan was off the market a short while to be audited, but 
is apparently available again.

It's very different from immunoregulin. It's available for sale again now.

You know, I was just thinking that perhaps there might be a way to get special dispensations the way we do for feline interferon.

Has anyone contacted the company that distributes it or produces it to find out? Don't get me started on how "disturbing" it is to be "protected" by our government agencies.

I know that Mama Kitty could need that again at some point in the future and it frustrates me to think it might not be available.

It's definitely worth checking into. I've been googling here - the 
scientific name of this product is acetylated mannans. 
The injectable form of it is manufactured and marketed by Carrington 
Laboratories as Acemannan Immunostimulant ™ . Veterinary Products 
Laboratories sells the product for veterinary application but I'm 
wondering if it is available outside this milieux. I personally would like 
to talk directlyto the person who made the decision to withhold it from 
the market and hear their justification and why it is taking such an 
extraordinary amount of time. Their claim was that they were auditing it 
-- but I would also like to know their definition of audit.

Ifind it odd that wound dressingscontaining acemannan in gel 
form are still available.

This might be a guy to talk to at Carrington Laboratories:

Carlton E. Turner, Chief Executive Officer(972) 518-1300

According to this article - Carrington is the only manufacturer in the 
world...at least the raw materials...

News from Carrington 
Laboratories 

Makes me wonder if there is a way to process one of these powdered forms to 
come up with the injectable formula. It isn't as though we would be 
selling it under another trade name.

I'm going to be slammed at work tomorrow but if I do get a chance - I will 
call this man.
