I had Covid in 2022. I've had no energy and powerful brain fog. Today is day 5 or taking 3-7 drops a day in 20 oz of water. For the first time in 2 years and able to write Excel equations and haven't been taking afternoon naps. So much more energy! It's amazing. No negative side effects so far.
MB stains countertops, clothes, fingers, mouth. It can be removed with vit C powder and some water. I sprinkle some of the powder onto the countertop and then take a moistened tissue and wipe it several times over several minutes. BTW, adding some vit C powder to your blue water drink makes it even better. I take 40mg of MB a day. It's great stuff, worth the occasional mess. You will feel the difference whatever your age.
You should contact your local compounding pharmacy for sourcing information to find safe, pharmaceutical-grade MB. MB and other medications should only be taken as prescribed by licensed health care providers.
That sounds like a great strategy for you! We work with people who have specialized needs in terms of dosing, and only source pharmaceutical grade MB from FDA-inspected facilities. Compounding allows us to customize the dosage form to fit each patients' unique needs, for an added stain-free benefit 😊
MB and ascorbic acid, (Vitamin C) are both involved in similar reactions, knows as redox reactions in the body, the reason Vitamin C is neutralising the colour of MB is because its donating electrons, this renders the MB pretty much inactive in the body, thus you only get the beneficial effects of the Vitamin C. Take one or the other, don't mix them.
@@wonderingheights yes I use the drops. I get BPH brand from Ebay, it is pharmaceutical grade. I take it 3 times a day. I started one drop at a time until I got to what worked for me.
I'm so happy to hear that you have found the best option for you! Our pharmacist recommends making sure you are sourcing pure pharmaceutical grade MB. Many online products are intended for industrial use and may contain 30% or more impurities that could be harmful to your health. Please reach out to your local compounding pharmacy or health care provider for more information if you are concerned about the source of your MB.
I have been taking Methylene Blue 1% made in the US for sometime. Liquid form, started 5 drop’s first month to 10 drop the next month. When going to the high dose which is recommended 20 drops I noticed feeling not so good so I stayed at 10 drops. But it has helps with energy, my arthritis, I originally started because of memory issues that run in the family. Hope it works on that.
We only recommend taking MB under the supervision of a licensed medical professional. It's so important to make sure you find the best fit for your needs! Our compounding pharmacists source pharmaceutical grade MB from FDA-inspected facilities.
@@aleksandrathomas8725 You go it alone then, like me. WE have be our own physicians. Just make sure you do your research first and know what you're doing. Or else maybe just find another doc who isn't a Big Pharma drug pusher, and get a 2nd opinion.
I use a juicer and make fresh orange juice to mix mine. No stains in my mouth or lips. I also place my cup in my sink and add my drops. It doesn’t stain anything because I have stainless steel sinks, just rinse.
I'm glad you haven't experienced the staining! Many patients need specialized, precise dosing when it comes to MB. We can compound this into capsules for an added, stain-free benefit to reduce some of the hassle.
Anything put into a juicer turns into 100% sugar in fructose which will kill you. You’re better off putting some artificial flavoring and water some safe artificial flavoring. 🤦🏼
I was diagnosed with epiditimitus in February 2023 and was prescribed an antibiotic by June it hadn’t really gone away, started MB and was gone by the end of July! Still take it as a prophylactic several times a week as I think the epiditimitus is a complication from a vasectomy I got 20 years ago.
Glad it was helpful! You can also learn more on our website here: dakotarx.com/unlocking-the-power-of-methylene-blue-applications-and-benefits-explained
I would start with two drops and by the second week, increase it to three drops, and so on. Do it first thing in the morning, be prepared as it can cause you to want to use the bathroom but it’s good that it does that.. I slowly increase my dosage. Currently I like taking about 4 to 5 drops not more than that at least for a month or so. No need to go overboard at your own pace.
I'm glad you and your healthcare provider have found what works for you. You are so right! Everyone has different needs, and it's important to have guidance from licensed medical professionals when searching for your ideal dose.
I use it for my skin with great results. 30 drops (1% solution) in 250 ml rosewater filled in a dark glass (Miron glass) spray bottle, applied morning and evening after a good cleanse.

@@AbraAnnesGenerosityAuctions Not at all when I use my own developed recipe mentioned above. 1 Clean face thoroughly 1 Spray generously 3 wait a few moments to dry 4 rub what is still wet into the skin 5 after couple of minutes the blue tone has vanished what can occur that your palms of your hands get a bluish tone which can be easily removed with a wet microfiber cloth. Then apply whatever you use in your skin care routine, e.g. Aloe Vera extract, Vitamin C. make up, sunscreen etc. Every skin reacts differently though, this is what works best for me. For me it was some trial and error until I found the best recipe for me. Just be patient, it took some time for me to see the results, but they are great!
When I was young (quite a few years ago) we used. something we called 'blue medicine' on our horses if they had a wound. It did work well to help heal the wound. I imagine it was the same thing. It did stain badly if we got it on anything.

@@christopherneufelt8971did you put the liquid in capsules or did you mix it with some vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and could you share the doasage, I’d like to try but my maths is not that great!
@@DakotaRx When you use the same size capsules all the time, you just need to measure once how far to fill them, then just keep filling them up to the same level.
Thank you for the time stamps in the drop-down box. I had stopped trying to learn about MB when I got stuck on the words "synthetic" and "dye." Now I see, like you say, MB has it's place and it sounds like it can be valuable. I bought a book on the internet that was supposed to be the "ultimate guide." Although it was well researched it was FAR from the ultimate guide. Now I'm trying to learn enough to actually use MB. Getting over "everything turns blue" is another hump! Could you possibly tell me a bit about using the powder at home? (I presume a pharmacy would need a prescription). Paul E. Marik, MD, FCCP, FCCM recommended the MB powder.
I'm so glad you found this video helpful, stay tuned for more updates on MB or other compounded medications! You should only take MB under the guidance of your health care provider. We often compound MB into capsules to prevent the staining for our patients. The research referenced here is exploring benefits of MB at very specific doses for even more potential benefits, for which you will need to work with a compounding pharmacy like ours.

I have watched a few videos by now on MB. In one of them I think they are talking about the intravenous type. It's an emergency medicine and it isn't cheap (sterile). In that RU-vid they mentioned that it is completely clear and colorless. But when it reacts it becomes blue. And that it is a quite common lab "show" where they can turn on and off the blue color by keeping it on the edge with "buffering isn't that what it is called"? I'm not a chemist myself.
I think its worth the risk in certain situations long covid, dementia strokes even at low doses if it improves oxygen uptake and energy depression/anxiety Im not on any drugs other wise I might be concerned. Im using the liquid mixed in distilled water. three times a week and monitor the benefits and I have red light device.
I recommend discussing sourcing of Methylene Blue with a licensed healthcare professional to make sure you have a product that is safe and optimized for maximum efficacy. Many sources of Methylene Blue powder are not thoroughly inspected. We source pharmaceutical grade MB from FDA-inspected facilities.
It was suggested to be, by the integrative Dr I visited, that I look into methylene blue for my autoimmune disease. So I purchased a bottle of USP grade & neglected to ask how to take it. I heard that it will stain your teeth and gums & earlier heard that you should take it with another substance but can't remember what that was (EDTA?). So what would be the dosage & what is the actual companion supplement? Should I mix it with juice & drink it with a straw to keep it from staining teeth. I'm quite uneducated at this point so the questions may seem simple-minded
@@worstalentscouthi, me again, order pharmaceutical grade from the States, it will be shipped via India, order 5 grams then cost of shipping won't be that expensive
Please discuss sourcing information with your local compounding pharmacy. We only source pharmaceutical grade MB from FDA-inspected facilities. Additionally, as a nationally accredited compounding pharmacy, we have in-house quality assurance procedures to ensure our patients are getting the safest, highest quality product available.
Everything you said has been on the internet for some time. Just because there may be a FEW people who may not do the research and take the wrong stuff at the wrong dose (it won’t kill them!) PLEASE DO NOT treat us ALL LIKE IDIOTS, and take away our ability to care for our self !!!
For personalized recommendations and dosing information, you should reach out to a licensed healthcare provider. If you don't have a provider, feel free to call our pharmacy team at (701) 255-1881 for a bit more information.

MB is contraindicated with a drug class called MAO Inhibitors. It is also important to use with caution in any patients taking medications with serotonergic activity such as SSRIs due to possibility of serotonin syndrome if taken together. You should contact your health care provider directly before making any changes to your medications or supplements.
Can you please tell everyone about the difference between Methylene Blue and Prussian Blue including the usages of Methylene Blue with DNA, MRNA, & RNA sequences?

I've been taking 1% Methylene Blue for 10 months. When I spill it on the counter , I spray Clorox Clean Up on it and wipe with a paper towel. The stain comes right off.
Thyroid issues can be very complex, so more information would definitely be required to figure out if MB is a good option for you. I recommend discussing this research directly with your health care provider, or you are always welcome to give our compounding pharmacists a call to discuss your unique needs. MB may help thyroid function if your thyroid dysfunction stems from an inflammatory problem. If it is an autoimmune problem such as Hashimoto’s, Low Dose Naltrexone is another option that may be the best choice for you.
Methylene blue inhibits NOX, I’ve had heart surgery and stents. Whenever I’ve tried using MB my heart acts like I’m have a bad reaction and intense angina. This has happened twice, I wont touch again! If you are a heart patient be careful.
We definitely are advocates for talking with a licensed healthcare professional before making ANY changes to your medications. This is no exception! Thank you for sharing your experience.
We're compounding MB in very specific doses for patients needing to take it under the guidance of a licensed medical professional. You're so right - compounded MB capsules don't cause the staining!
You should always work with a medical practitioner before trying methylene blue. If you and your licensed medical professional feel that MB would be a good fit, be sure to source pharmaceutical or USP grade MB.
Thanks for your question! Some health care providers follow dosing and titration protocols that are not commercially available, and sometimes patients have individual needs that make a custom compounded prescription their best option. We also have OTC products that many patients use with amazing results!
The research discussed in this video is specific to oral absorption of MB. I'd recommend reaching out to your dermatologist or our pharmacy team at (701) 255-1881 for a bit more information on topical application of MB.
I have Never had long Covid , have a relative and a friend with long covid , one took 2 shots , other 3 shots ....I never participated in the experiment , so for me , I'm thinking the Long Covid is side effect of the shot ! Does anyone know someone with Long Covid that like me, never took the shot ? ?
At this time, I am not aware of any established connection between vaccinations and long covid. There are some reports of Covid vaccine “injury,” but these reports are extremely rare and there has been very little science to back them up. The only thing I’ve seen with using Methylene Blue is for actual Long Covid and often times in combination with Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) and precursor amino acids for the production of Glutathione.
@@DakotaRxyou hurt your credibility by discounting the published studies that show harm. Of course the bulk of studies, well-funded by industry, are going to tout safety and efficacy. Check out the info coming out about Pfizer’s trial data. A mess. I’ve had three shots - never again.
We use state of the art compounding pharmacy equipment specially calibrated for dealing with fine powder forms of prescriptions like this. Our nationally accredited compounding labs in Bismarck, ND are specially equipped to safely and effectively compound methylene blue for our patients! Definitely contact your local compounding pharmacy for information about their specific accreditation status and quality assurance practices. Not all compounding pharmacies are created equal.
@@DakotaRx I thank you I just want to know how much of that to mix cuz it seems so much darker than the liquid. Like a quarter of a teaspoon then I take it? I don't know the right measurements to take
Definitely a great question for your local compounding pharmacist! Compounding pharmacies specialize in customizing alternative dosage forms such as suppositories to meet patients' individual needs. We're a nationally accredited compounding pharmacy based in Bismarck, ND, and are licensed to support patients in ND, SD, MT, MN, WI, MO, CO, ID, AZ, NV, & WY.
In this phase of research, we are paying close attention to which specific doses and dosage forms provide the most benefits. Clinical research is such an exciting field, and we can't wait to share an update!
You should seek the advice of your local compounding pharmacist or licensed health care provider to make sure it is safe for you. There are several considerations such as medical history, drug interactions, etc. that need to be considered.

At this time, there is very little literature on the use of Methylene Blue (MB) in veterinary medicine. In my research I have come across some documented uses in dogs with methemoglobinemia (a rare blood disorder), but MB is contraindicated in cats and should NOT be used in the feline population. Be sure to consult with a licensed veterinary medicine provider before making any changes to your pet's medications or supplements!
My beloved 🐈🐈⬛🐈Fiona contacted toxicplasmosis😢 & we've been struggling to manage her inflammation, to no avail.😮 She's on prednisolone, but we've had to up her dose from 3 time's a week, to every day😬 and I'm worried about the prednisolone wll compromise her health more😢 Please advise🙏
Apparently ginger extract is able to reverse pathological changes caused by toxoplasmosis, as is extract of chamomile flowers. Check on google for more information. And contact a pharmacist for help in getting the medicines. Both ginger and chamomile are fine for cats. Good luck. Don't worry about a grouch who finds fault with your choice of words, some people need to show superiority
This is definitely something to talk to your vet about, or call to speak with one of our compounding pharamcist for more information on your options. Wishing Fiona well!

Methylene Blue (MB) has diverse clinical applications due to its hormetic properties which means the benefits and risks are related to dosing. In small doses MB exhibits positive outcomes and in high doses it is more toxic. As MB has an antimicrobial property it may in fact have a negative impact on the gut microbiome (good bacteria). This effect may not be so detrimental in the smaller doses referenced by the research discussed in this video. I would always recommend a probiotic protocol when taking MB. For my thoughts on probiotics, please review this blog post: dakotarx.com/current-thoughts-on-probiotics I hope this helps!
My Mother, used it on our chicken pox bumps. She dabbed, all four of us. We had a man selling vacuum's. He asked, what was all over our faces and we told him we had chicken pox. He ran down the porch steps!
Methylene blue has a long history of many versatile uses! Right now, we're exploring its research in small doses and specific dosage forms for new realized benefits. Exciting stuff!
Are you going to make an over the counter, cheap, ancient remedy ‘prescription’ so that pharmaceutical companies can make money and I can not get it any more without paying a doctor to give me a prescription l??!!??
When this inexpensive and accessible miracle substance goes to prescription its going to go away from the masses and become expensive. Why not just inform people about the benefits and let it stay accessible and inexpensive?
Accessibility is our goal - we are not a drug manufacturer. With medications like MB, dosing is highly individual and we believe should be tailor made to each individual, rather than mass manufactured at set dosage levels by big pharmaceutical companies. Compounding pharmacies like ours specialize in helping people access medications that meet their needs when commercially manufactured prescriptions are not a good fit or are inaccessible to them.
Thank's for watching! We only care that there is good, educational info out there so folks can be empowered to make educated decisions about their health 😊💙
This makes perfect sense, with its history as a traditional dye. This is one of the reasons it's SO important to work with your local pharmacist or health care provider to source MB for medicinal use - pharmaceutical grade is different than what's used in industry, and you want to be sure you are getting a pure and safe product!
Thank you for the comment. The purpose of this video is to review new research, at every step we advocate for people knowing their options and choosing what is right for them. So often medications are promoted or marketed without helping patients understand the research behind it.
We are working closely with clinical researchers, providers, and pharmacy researchers to learn as much as we can about it, but it has a long history of use as a medicine. We value empowering our patients and providers with knowledge about the options available to them, and we have been getting questions about new applications and dosing information! These videos are always for educational purposes, and should never be taken as medical advice.
