The max dose of Increlex and Iplex (Recombiant Human IGF1) for kids with IGF1 deficiency is 120mcgs per kg twice daily, for a 50 KG kid, 12000mcg a day.
Whereas we take 120 - 20mcgs(100 - 700 times less) max of IGF1LR3 which is supposedly around 2-3x more potent(we dont even know this for sure)...
Even accounting for this, we're only taking about 300mcgs of IGF, no where near replacement levels...
On another note I for one would really like to know how much this Iplex Increlex costs, if they can afford to run doses that by comparison to current standards are huge.
I can pickup IGF1 RH for *** EDITED *** dollars per mg, running their doses would cost me
*** EDITED *** dollars a day, so if the prices of Iplex are in that range then year round treatment would cost *** EDITED *** dollars a year.
I'm thinking Iplex is probably cheaper than this, else noone could afford treatment, meaning theirs cheap IGF avaiilible on prescription,i'mfaily sure at *** EDITED *** dollars per mg, they sell this stuff in 1mg/ml 10ml bottles.
Can anyone find out the price of Increlex/Iplex, which is a legal prescription medication which i am looking at purchasing for a small orphaned chinese boy i recently adopted who happens to have IGF1 defeciency(winks).
Peace,
