No problem Marlene. I hope your baby stays healthy.

I think it depends on the lab results. If the haematology values are within normal ranges (especially haematocrit, red cells, platelets and reticulocyte counts) I don’t think you need the Winstrol. What I might consider though is putting him on the Doxycycline, which I believe may slow down or interfere with the reproduction of the virus. I would be interested to see what the neutrophil/lymphocyte levels look like. You often see a reversal of the ratio (with lymphocytes rising) and/or abnormal lymphocytes developing, and this is also from the effects of the virus. The Doxycycline MIGHT help.

I should also point out that Winstrol used to be given to increase a cat’s appetite, strength, weight, and muscle mass. I believe it also acts positively on the bone marrow as per my experience and the scientific study I recently quoted, showing a positive improvement for people with osteoporosis, who were put on Winstrol. Thus, it wouldn’t be the worst thing to do, to have a 3-4 week course on the Winstrol for a cat. It may help fortify the bone marrow, and the cat’s strength generally.

Would you consider using this for a cat (1.7 years old) that is Positive but no showing any signs of the illness (yet) ?

Winstrol – 1 mg twice a day

Doxycycline – 1/5 to ¼ tablet (100 mg) twice a day

Prednisolone – ½ 5 mg tablet, twice a day




If there are problems with the intestines (vomiting, constipation, slow moving stools, stools of large diameters, all of which might be indicative of the effect of the virus on the intestines) you can try adding ¼ tablet of apometocloprimide.

If the haematocrit level is REALLY REALLY low – like below 5-8, you might consider starting the Winstrol at 2 mg twice a day for a week, to try and kickstart things quickly, but given that there is going to be a likely increase in liver enzymes with the use of Winstrol, recognize that this might also increase the liver enzymes faster.


Hope this helps!

Amani,

Could you please give the dosages used for Zander's Protocol? I know they must have been previously given, but I cannot seem to find them.

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Sherri

I hope you got some good news today. However, as you know, my experience is that the Winstrol needs to be used long term before the red cells are back into the normal range. I continue to recommend use of the Doxycyline to interfere with viral RNA synthesis. The Winstrol does not attack the virus, though I believe it makes the cat stronger overall and able to fight back. But at the outset of the treatment regime, I believe you must have the Doxycycline on board to try and reduce the viral load, or at least, keep it from rising.
