Ferdinando Sartucci

I am treating a jung patient (35 years old) affected by OP Atrophy starting more than 5 yrs ago, with poor or no results; another sibject (about 60 yrs old) treated before exhibited analogous results.

F. Sartucci, M.D.

Antonio Lucero

@Dr. Sartucci: Thank you for responding to my question. Were you using Folic Acid in your treatment? I imagine that the cerebellum plays an important role in these cases. Is that true?

Mark Obermann

Interesting approach. Do you have any data apart from single cases on its efficacy? What dosage would be considered appropriate in humans?
