Oral Zeolite Therapy for Management of Mild to Moderate Lead Poisoning: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Zeolite tablets show considerable promise as an adjunct therapy for mild to moderate lead poisoning. They effectively lower serum lead levels without adverse effects. This intervention could reduce the metal burden in the bloodstream and mitigate lead-induced multiorgan damage, offering a more effective and less invasive treatment option.
