APF long term
|
Patricia Evans
I'm sure this question has been answered before, but when I put in a search for APF, I came up with over 6, 000 responses. I also tried APF long term, but came up with too many to read, also, so I'm sorry to ask again. I would like to know if APF can be used on a maintenance basis like J herb is, in place of J herb. My mare has been on J herb for years but seems to do better on APF. I've used APF in the past for increases in her pergolide, but when I go back to the J herb after she adapts to her new dose, she seems to not feel as well, so I would like to keep her on the APF if it wouldn't cause any problems.

My mare did better on APF so I used it until the day she died. For some reason her insulin was lower on APF.

I use APF daily, all the time too and I increase to a second dose when I titrate pergolide up. I think Vinnie does better while on it as well.

Yes, some people choose to use it long-term for the same reason.
Just a search hint: I like to start most searches with "posterid:58231" if I'm looking for Dr Kellon's opinion and want to filter out all the welcome messages that mention common search words. I remember her saying long-term APF is fine, so I went looking for that message. I searched "posterid:58231 +APF +long" and the 8th message down the list said "APF can be given indefinitely but most people end up stopping it shortly after the target dose is reached." https://ecir.groups.io/g/main/message/243331 -- Kirsten and Shaku (IR + PPID) - 2019 Kitimat, BC, Canada ECIR Group Moderator Shaku's Photo Album |

Hi Kirsten, Can you tell me where you got the poster id number? Excuse my lack of knowledge but I didn't see where to find that number to be able to use it in a search? posterid:58231 -- Patricia North central Florida July 7 2018 https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/files/Patricia%20and%20Dancer%20and%20Nathan Nathan: https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/album?id=94152 |

Find any message written by Dr Kellon. Below the message next to the Reply and Like buttons, there is a More button. Click on it and select "All Messages Posted by this Member". It will take you to a list of all her posts and at the top of the screen in the Search box window will be her poster ID. Leave it there and use a "+" symbol to add your search term.
