ABSTRACT:
Methods for treatment of humans and other animals with dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). DMSA is administered to reduce levels of silicon in blood and tissue, reduce blood pressure, improve kidney function, prevent or retard the progression of chronic renal failure, treat the accumulation of silicon in advanced kidney disease, decrease accumulation of reactive oxygen metabolites, increase superoxide dismutase activity, and/or prevent the onset or improve the current status of senile dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
