Researchers and elite pharmacologists often use blood or urine levels. So about 1/100. Some medicines require monitoring, but this is not the case for the vast majority of psychiatric drugs. 25 years ago, when I used venlafaxine before it was available in pharmacies, testing the drug and metabolite levels was very useful. It is still not routinely tested. Why do so? The […]

The use of many peptides varies by country. A number of those with Morgellons lesions report that topical application or internal SQ injection helps lesions containing keratin and collagen fibers and other pathology. Synthetic fibers or specs are not seen in our population. This is not proof of its benefit since they are never on on treatment for both comfort and

MORE BASICS ON SAM-e or SAMe 1. Sam-e is routinely prescribed in Europe for decades and gaining popularity in the United States as a dietary supplement since 1998–1999, SAMe has been proposed for many medical conditions, particularly depressive disorders [30]. 2. SAMe has been widely studied compared with other food supplement ingredients, and an impressive body of literature from the last

We have 100 trillion bacteria in the intestinal track, and we typically give a trillion bacteria a day if using an antibiotic. But Ullah offers fascinating information: 1. A systematic review studied the association between diet and depression in children and adolescents. The review concluded that a high intake of healthy foods (fruits, leafy green vegetables, and fish consumption) and a

Consider Integrative Therapeutics with both methylated folate and methylated B-12. Suboptimal nutrition, with its impact on the neuroendocrine system, has been implicated in the underlying pathology of depressive disorders. Folate, a group of water-soluble compounds, plays a crucial role in various central nervous system functions. Depressed individuals often exhibit low levels of serum and red blood cell folate. Multiple studies and systematic reviews have investigated the

DEPRESSION TOP DOCTOR: EXPERT CORRECTION OF BASIC ERRORS Fast look at maximum doses in common use We offer over 80 excellent treatments for depression, but I merely want to make a few points. 1. Escitalopram (Lexapro) works in many at a dose that some naive people feel is too high. Some get help at 10 mg or 20 mg, but most in

To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the effectiveness of a dose increase of SAMe for patients with MDD who failed to respond to an initial dose. While there were no significant differences in effectiveness among SAMe 3,200 mg/day, escitalopram 20 mg/day, and placebo, increased doses of SAMe and of escitalopram provided improvement for nonresponders in various

Durante 34 años, el Dr. James Schaller ha sido pionero en tratamientos para la depresión resistente, apoyándose en su amplia formación tanto en psiquiatría de adultos como infantil. Junto a su compañera de investigación, Kimberly Mountjoy (MS), redactaron este libro para abordar las lagunas significativas existentes en la literatura actual. Sus experiencias personales con la depresión impulsan su dedicación para ayudar a los

USE LIMP OILS OR ESSENTIAL VOLATILE OILS? Antibiotics Are Useless I was stunned when top LL MDs recommended a combination of a few oils to kill biofilms. Their certainty was contagious. Their excellence as doctors certainly made me listen and use their advice.   Then I thought back to our 2000-2020 research on biofilms and our #1 reference book. We generally found the

Most physicians never think of biofilms, despite their being the normal state of bacterial and fungal infections. So people with these infections relapse in a season, a few years or ten years.   Note the image: Two medicines in the picture are utterly useless as they attack from above.    Why? They cannot break through the biofilm.
