This is a long but informative article about an oral form of Gallium that sounds promising. Take a look. http://www.surechem.org/index.php?Action=document&docId=2269613&db=USPTOA&page=8&perpage=10&generalsort=latest&db_query=30%3A27%3ABNRNXUUZRGQAQC-UHFFFAOYSA-N%3A7%3A5%3Ainchi%3A2%3A0%3A

This was the first and second clinical trials proposal for Univ. of Iowa. I believe these are finished and they are trying to get 3rd phase clinical trials going but I've heard it's slow going. We need more people to ask about this and help inform others. Gallium, a Potential New Therapeutic for...

Yes, I think this thread is messed up too. When I look at it on hybrid or threaded mode it starts repeating the 2007 posts again towards the end of the post lost? Is there a moderator who can look at this?

Just a suggestion....you might want to make sure that you are clear that this was just YOU that had problems with Tobi. There are a whole lot of people with CF that have not had problems with it and need it to clear up infections. It worries me when someone gets on here and says a drug is awful...

That's right. It is a 5 day drip but in my case it was Really worth it. I had no side effects and after the 5 days you start to feel progressively better as your resistant pseudomonas is killed off. The gallium nitrate is stored in the fat in your body and stays there for months killing off...

Yes. You can find several studies and lots of information dating back to 2007 if you do a google search for Gallium Nitrate + cystic fibrosis. I put this message out here because everyone I have talked to has never heard of it or what it can do for patients with pseudomonas. We NEED to get the...

I know this is an old blog but this drug needs attention now. I was in the second clinical trials for this drug in June of 2011 and I had significant results. I had been going into the hospital every 3 months for the last several years. After participating in the study my functions jumped up...
