T @ r ! Q:
Quote from http://www.rxlist.com/desferal-drug.htm regarding Vit-C with desferal
--- Quote ---In patients with severe chronic iron overload, impairment of cardiac function has been reported following concomitant treatment with Desferal and high doses of vitamin C (more than 500 mg daily in adults). The cardiac dysfunction was reversible when vitamin C was discontinued. The following precautions should be taken when vitamin C and Desferal are to be used concomitantly:
* Vitamin C supplements should not be given to patients with cardiac failure.
* Start supplemental vitamin C only after an initial month of regular treatment with Desferal.
* Give vitamin C only if the patient is receiving Desferal regularly, ideally soon after setting up the infusion pump.
* Do not exceed a daily vitamin C dose of 200 mg in adults, given in divided doses.
* Clinical monitoring of cardiac function is advisable during such combined therapy.

at that time i used to take a 500mg tablet by dividing that into 4 pieces , i used to take 1 of those four pieces after starting chelation with Desferal ( with pump ) and other piece after the 12-14 hours to the first 1 piece ... its mean i used to take only two of four pieces in 24 hours ( dividend in two doses ) .... that means i took 250mg a day ... hope i cleared my point well ...
