my doctor has me taking colloidal silver (CS), 80cc, 3 times a week, in my PICC line. he charges me $95 for a 250 ml bottle. does anyone out there know where i can get it cheaper?

Is this helping?

250 ml = 8.454 fluid ounces

So one bottle last for about 3 treatments?

What is the PPM for what you use? That will affect the price.

I'm sure you know to be very careful - not just about the silver type and PPM but the source of the water used. Actually, the doctor may not let a patient inject a drug unless he knows the source, etc. And that would be very understandable.

Still, you might ask if he is in the position to offer you a reduced rate. If you can show the same brand, same PPM at a lower price from another source, he may adjust his price. However, that price does not sound too far off market prices.

Just google the information on the label. Confirm the source, though. Some counterfeit products that look real are floating around out there. A compounding pharmacy in the SW, a couple years ago, got a wrongly labeled medicine of something used in IVs and 3 people died. Two of our local doctors lost their practice.

I''m not sure how you would double check but your doctor may be willing to work with you on this. I hope so.

Good luck.

fyi,

newbie girl sent me a note saying she was having problems with board.

she ended up with 5 identical posts about this, so i gave her instructions on how to delete the UNWANTED 4 others and keep the one with any/all replies to it!

keebler, thanks for your input as usual; a wealth of info! [group hug]

Oh, I just saw at another thread some of the details I had asked about regarding PPM:

she wrote: " was on rocephin for 4 months. now i am doing colloidal silver (CS), 80 cc, 3 times a week. does anyone out there know where i can get IV grade CS, 23 PPM, 250 ml bottle for less than $95.00? "

This is just a start from a preliminary Google search:

www.goodnnaturalonline.com/store/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=13&products_id=201

Not sure if this is IV grade, but the same volume is $20.

27 rather than 23 PPM.

Quite a price difference.
