Dimercaptosuccinic Acid 50mg to 250mg Oral Capsules
Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (DMSA) is used to treat lead positioning and reducing autistic symptoms in some children with autism. Many children with autism have a reduced level of glutathione and reduced ability to excrete mercury, thus leading to lead positioning and symptoms of autism.
