proglumide's dosage and supposed tolerance effect
      #104135 - 09/30/03 06:30 PM

Jonathan Ott said that the dose should be 200 mg, and so for a long time i was cutting the 400-mg tablets in half. Well, one time i didn't, and the difference was like night and day. I'll never again cut those tabs to take a lower dose. 200 mg is a pure waste. No wonder so many people here have said it did nothing for them. I'll bet they weren't taking enough.

So experiment ... and don't believe everything you read about proglumide because it might not be true for you. For instance, i've never noticed anything like tolerance developing, even after daily use for weeks.

Just one article in a journal says something about noticing tolerance and everyone keeps repeating it over and over and over again. It all started from that one-sentence remark. Well, nobody replicated that result in a published article. So what does that tell you? Maybe it's a fluke or an error in observation or analysis. Or maybe it really was true for the rats in the experiment. But i'm not a rat.

If anyone has any personal experience with this anti-ulcer/anti-stress medicine, i'd love to hear about it.

This is the first drug i've ever heard of that works to reduce the sensitivity of the CCK system. Does anyone know of others?

Not sure of any others...have heard a lot about this anti ulcer medication used to "reverse tolerance"....I want to try it but I dont have access to it nor could I find a legit IOP that sells it...does anyone know of a legit IOP or OP that sells it?

For those who dont know much about the chemical or just want to know everything about the medication...
A great article on Proglumide (Milid)

Again if anyone knows who sells proglumide (milid brand name) please let me know! feel free to private message me anytime...

thanks, best of luck and be careful!

http://www.the-dispensary.com/index.htm sells proglumide and they are legit. I just got a box of tabs from them today. Takes about two weeks.

Now if I could figure out how to use them.

i bet you that it would have some helping impact on withdrawl too, because it cant be good to be flooded with extra hightened CCK Peptide Levels right after quiting an opioid. Im sure it probably takes at least some days for CCK levels to get back to normal after quiting an opioid.
