#1 There is a drug called Galavit used in Europe but not approved in the US yet that may also offer some hope to those exposed. Galavit is derived from compounds known as phthalazine diones. One of its main substances is amino-tetrahydrophthalazinethe same component in the Luminol used by crime scene investigators to detect traces of blood.
An article in the Spring 2009 Johns Hopkins Memory Bulletin1 said the history of this drug can be traced to the 1960s Soviet space program. The first Russian cosmonauts traveled through space in capsules that did not provide proper safeguards against radiation. Doctors noticed that many of these space pioneers developed serious health problems from radiation exposure, such as leukemia, lymphoma and skin cancers. As the cosmonauts' medical problems became more pronounced, the military dedicated itself to finding an effective treatment. Gslavit improves results of traditional cancer treatment(surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy). In Russia, Galavit has also been prescribed to treat a wide range of chronic inflammatory diseases, including illnesses with an autoimmune componentsuch as Crohn's disease, liver diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers and ulcerative colitis and to treat immune deficiencies arising as side effects of radiation and chemotherapy.
