Those green capsules...

When I went to John Carter with Sally all those years ago, part of our regime prescribed by John were some green capsules that I used to open and sprinkle on Sal's dinner. I was told they were pig's pancreatic juices and that they would help her digest. At some point the supply of these stopped and I was told by John it was due to some or other regulation.
Someone trying CV247 left a message on my general blog asking what these tablets were called and I couldn't remember and assumed they were gone.
But this morning it suddenly came back to me - they were called Tryplase. And a quick search on the Internet reveals they are still going! They may be slightly different in formation, but they do still exist.
John used them in our case - which was liver cancer. Do any other patients remember being given the green capsules or was it just us?

  1. Wow! Well done for remembering what they were called! Yes, Gunner was given them too for his bone tumour.

  3. Hi Anonymous, your vet should be able to get it for you - you may need to direct him to jmarffy@ruegg.co.uk. Or you can be referred by your vet to any one of the vets currently prescribing CV247, many of which will provide it postally.

    I am told it is inexpensive. But perhaps one of the current users could tell everyone the approx cost per month?

  5. Might be worth checking out http://petswithcancertryingcv247.blogspot.com/2009/03/heidis-regime-whats-yours.html and also from February's blog "more on the diet".

    Tryplase helped dogs like Sally who had digestion problems. you could ask you vet if they'd think it could help, too.

    Good luck - please do email me any updates so I can add you to this blog.

  6. Just notice your question about price of CV247. I purchase mine over the phone from Paul Grant Vets for a total cost of £30 for 100ml bottle including ascorbic acid. About £11 of that is the special delivery cost due to refridgeration.
