Title: Exjade and fever
Post by: leonardo on January 20, 2015, 03:31:10 PM

Hi to everyone,
I have a doubt...can my son assume Exjade when he has high fever with flou?
I read sometimes who says yes and sometimes who says no...I'm so confused!

No, all chelators should be stopped during a fever. I will be posting the official instructions on this elsewhere.
