I received my order of prescription drug ALINAMIN F (5mg and 25mg) from Japan. ALINAMIN F is TTFD (Thiamine Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).

I ordered and have received prescription drug ALINAMIN F (5mg and 25mg) from Japan. It is Fursultiamine (another name for TTFD) as fursultiamine hydrochloride. I have an email stating that the hydrochloride comes off during digestion leaving the active ingredient TTFD for use in the body. I ordered, then had to send a wire transfer before they would ship. Currently there is a 33 dollar shipping fee due to fuel prices. I am not sure what normal shipping would be. Wire transfer fees was a few dollars using a service online. mimaki-family-japan.com/ite...

Here is a link to Elliot Overton's list of research links on TTFD: objectivenutrients.com/insi...

The smallest dose available in the USA is 50mg caps, which is much too strong for me.

That TTFD page is impressive. I wonder if you could take the 50 mg capsule and dilute it in water to get smaller doses? That is what I do to reduce my Prozac dose.

[Gcf51 in reply to Bolt_Upright]

Never thought about dilution with water. As long as it's all water soluble, it should work. I say all because to make the TTFD fill a capsule, they mix with something.

[Gcf51 in reply to Bolt_Upright]

The contents of a TTDF cap taste awful with an after taste that is even worst. Might make some very bad tastings water. I was making my own caps to get it pass my taste buds.

TTFD increases the detox enzyme rhodanese 👍🏻

Also requires a Methyl Donor.

[Boscoejean]

so you ordered it in both of the doses so you could see which was more helpful?

[Gcf51 in reply to Boscoejean]

Following High Dose Thiamine Protocol (B1 Therapy), I am increasing the dose. Currently cutting a 25 in half plus a 5 (17.5mg a day). From my experience with the 50mg caps, my target might be 20mg.

Compared to the contents of a TTFD cap, the ALINAMIN F has no taste at all.
