Discussions tagged “lead poisoning”

I've just been prescribed Edetate calcium disodium (Edetate Calc 1000mg/5ml Inj) to treat lead poisoning. I'm not sure what to expect from the treatment or the side effects. Has anyone gone through this and had any tips to share? This is my first time dealing with something like this. I do know the treatment involves injections and it's crucial to stay well-hydrated. Are there any specific side effects I should be extra wary of? This forum has been so helpful in the past!
