Immunomodulators are FDA approved drugs which cause a change in the way the body's immune defenses respond to a disease. Typically they are used to stimulate the immune system.
"ImmunoRegulin (brand) is a whole cell bacteria preparation..."i.e. Bacteria are injected intravenously.
Study of Acemannan (brand) required participants had not responded to traditional treatments. Of 43 dogs and cats in study, 26 (60%) showed evidence that pet's immune system was attacking the tumor after using Acemannan.
"They (immunomodulators) non-specifically stimulate the immune system." i.e. same premise as acupuncture, herbs, homeopathy, aroma therapy.
"Regressin (October, 1984) is an emulsion of mycobacterial cell walls which have been modified to reduce their toxic and allergic effects, and retain their antitumor activity...88% effective for immunotherapy of mixed mammary tumors and mammary adenocarcinomas of dogs." Injected directly into the tumor. The tumor dies and drains. Other tumors typically regress even though not injected. i.e. Same principle as homeopathy and nosodes.
The supposed gap between modern "traditional" medicine and centuries old "alternative" therapies is sometimes hard to define. There are many areas of overlapping perspectives. You owe it to your self and your pets to know all your options to you can choose wisely.
