Is there a use-by date for Methylene Blue? I bought a 250 ml. bottle about 12 months ago.

You may want to check about using Vit C with MB. I don't have it in front of me but I think I read in a Mercola post not to use Vit C with it.

Contraindication
Posted by RENE (ID) on 01/13/2025
Effexor is not an MAOI and it does not have a direct effect on serotonin levels. it is the MAOIs that are considered contraindicated with methylene blue.. maois are some of the oldest or first discovered used to treat depression. They call it "dirty" because back then it was kind of a hit and miss and what they got was drugs that happened to affect certain chemicals. Since then they came out with prozac, at least 25 years ago, it is an SSRI or a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor which are considered clean because they only affect one chemical or two and it's controlled. I doubt there are very many people left on maois treatment.

Was wondering where you were able to get 5% iodine. I can get it online but hoped you found a store you can walk into and buy. I am aware of the law changes in 2007 that only one ounce of 5% can be sold at one time.
I have looked almost everywhere for it, in healthfood stores. No one has it. Whole Foods and Earwhone doesn't even have iodine other than the one help derived iodine and does not provide any percentages on the lable and the fluid is clear.

Parasites
Posted by Tommy (North York, On, Canada) on 09/03/2010
To Bill from Philippines,
Hi Bill, Thank you very much for your posts. I have a question regarding the use of methylene blue against Entamoeba Hartmanni. This protozoa is believed to be non-pathogenic, however, me and my wife are experiencing the same mental and GI problems and some articles talks about virulent strains of this parasite. I feel like a bubble moving in my chest. And sometimes in the back of my neck. I took the Hulda Clark protocol for a week and I felt great but after that I felt that the protozoa has developed a resistance because I continue taking the tincture (Black walnut, Wormwood, cloves) without any improvement and I felt the symptoms coming back. What I want to do next is to use Methylene Blue against this protozoa but I don't know the right protocol. I wonder if you have time to help me with that?
I'm also taking L-Argiline because I read that L-argiline stimulates the productions of Murine macrophage in mice's which make them able to fight the protozoa. God bless you.
Using Methylene Blue
Posted by Wydo (Ventura, Ca, United States ) on 08/26/2010
Hi Bill, I would like to try Methylene Blue. I trust the Methylene Blue but I am worried about other ingredients in the aquatic products. One of them has Sodium Benzaote and I don't know if this is toxic or not. Other products just don't list ingredients. You also mention vitamin C and I would like to know what kind I could use such as sodium ascorbate. Can you mix the vitamin C in the water with the Methylene Blue? Thank you for you time Bill, in advance.

Hello again Bill and thank you for your information. I just have one more question. Could you please tell me if you can mix the Methylene Blue with vitamin C powder in the same glass of water?

General Feedback
Posted by Alain (Ottawa, Canada) on 07/24/2009
One of Ted's last post, I noticed methylene blue. Because it has been mentioned a few times already, I just thought it would be a good idea to add it in your list of remedies.
Keep up the good work!
Alain
EC: Thank you for the great suggestion, Alain - done!
Where to Buy: Canada
Posted by Ab (Castleton, Ontario) on 03/16/2009
Does anyone know of a Canadian source for methylene blue? I've searched aquarium and science supply websites, but can't find anyone willing to ship to Canada.
Also: my husband has used both glutathione (intravenous and also as an inhalant) and low-dose naltrexone (not at the same time) for Parkinson's. Each was very effective for about a year.

You probably have your supply source issue resolved by now but I do recall another Canadian unable to purchase there was able to order from the U.K. Try the U.K. Amazon version for names of suppliers and order from them.

The Kordon brand Methylene BLUE concentration from the pet store here is 2.303%. The product's Website says:
"SPECIFICATIONS
Contains zinc free, chloride salt of Methylene Blue. Provided as a 2.303% water solution."
Is this the correct product?

Parkinson's Disease
Posted by A (Toronto, Ontario) on 06/27/2009
Jane,
Is there a reason why sodium ascorbate should be taken with the meth blue? Would another form of vitamin C not be better when stroke is a possibility?
And could you describe the alkaline drink your father is taking-- exact amounts etc?
Thanks,
Abigail
Malaria
Posted by Blue (Reno, Nv, Usa) on 09/08/2010
I'm amazed at the many positive results of using Metheylene Blue. My question is about malaria. I may have contracted the mild form (Plasmodium Malariae) when I visited Thailand a year and a half ago, (lucky you, Ted, for living there) and the symptoms are only recently showing up (3 to 4 months now) as pain in my spleen that is not going away. No classic symptoms of fevers/chills, and also no blood test as yet since it's an expensive test and I have doubts about the tech recognizing it in the states where malaria is virtually unknown. My doctor prescribed an upper abdominal sonagram (sp?) which showed nothing, but he confirmed a swelling in my spleen area during the physical exam. Does anyone know how much MB was given to GI's in Vietnam to cure malaria? A few drops of the very diluted. 1% solution sounds like a very light dose against blood parasites. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.
Malaria
Posted by Blue (Reno, Usa) on 10/01/2010
Methylene Blue. The bottle arrived (4 oz., 2.303% pre-mixed solution.). The question I posted a couple of months ago hasn't been answered though. How many drops should I take per day and for how long to eliminate malaria? As a mitochondria stimulant, would the 2.3% solution be too much?
Estimates okay, I realize this isn't a medical advice site. About Canada, every site I looked at won't ship to Canada. Perhaps there's a ban on MB in your country?
Thank you very much, Blue

Malaria
Posted by Kylie (Whitianga, New Zealand) on 07/03/2012
I would like to know the dosage for malaria as well. I'm taking methylene blue away with me as a malaria preventative and would be good to know how many drops of a 1% solution I should take as a preventative. Any suggestions?
Malaria
Posted by Kylie (Whitianga, New Zealand) on 07/06/2012
Thanks - I checked out MMS on the web as well as here on earthclinic. Seems great if you've already contracted malaria, but I'm looking for a preventative. I don't fancy being in the middle of nowhere with the terrible cramping and diarrhea MMS seems to bring on, whereas the methylene blue "avatar" side effects seem easier to deal with. Just seeing if someone knows of a dose that will effectively kill the malaria Protozoa should they manage to get in in the first place. I'll be sure to eat pawpaw seeds etc too, plus I'm taking H2O2 & vit c powder with me as well.
