DMSA (100 mg, 45 Caps)

What is DMSA?

DMSA, or dimercaptosuccinic acid, is an organosulfur compound: an organic compound that contains sulfur. Sulfur is essential to life and is plentiful in nature; it even appears in two of the 20 common amino acids. DMSA occurs in two forms, one of which - meso 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid - which may support cardiovascular health.
DMSA is water-soluble and non-toxic. It has been used orally since the 1950s.

Is DMSA Safe?

DMSA is quite safe and usually has few side effects, especially when used under the guidance of a physician. The use of a more moderate dosage over a longer period of time may enhance safety and efficacy.
DMSA can remove other nutrients, so it is important to take a quality multi-vitamin to ensure your body has adequate supplies of these nutrients. DMSA can also cause deficiencies of copper, manganese, molybdenum, and zinc; supplementation will help counteract the removal of these minerals*.
As always, consult with your medical practitioner before beginning or stopping any supplement regimen.
DMSA should be taken under the supervision of a physician.
