I'm looking for imformation on pulmanary fibrosis and hydrogen peroxide iv therapy?

If you want reliable information on pulmonary fibrosis, go to the following sites:

http://www.pulmonaryfibrosis.org/
http://www.coalitionforpf.org/

I was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis in March of 2003. I found out early on that the world offers all kinds of "miracle cures" and they prey on those of us who are desperate for a cure. Make no mistake, these "cures" do not work. There is no cure for this. It is a terminal disease and it kills 100% of the people who are afflicted with it. At the present time, there is no hope other than a lung transplant. It kills over 50,000 people in the US alone every year and that number is on the increase.

Our only hope is through valid scientific research. If you are compelled to spend your money on something, don't give it to a snake oil salesman who wants to pump hydrogen peroxide into your veins. Send your money to one of the organizations listed above and hope that research finds a valid treatment. I am sorry to be blunt, but do not listen to those who offer magic pills and IV treatments that will cure you of this disease. It ain't gonna happen. Good luck.

Pulmonary fibrosis results in scarring of the lung tissue. This means that your lungs are less efficient when exchanging gases across the aveoli (air sacs) and also less efficient at moving volumes of air, and clearing the airways in general of mucous and contaminants.
Hydrogen peroxide is a dubious anti-infective agent, who's primary benefit is cleaning wounds. It is toxic if ingested (ITS A POISON!). There are many bogus or quack therapies out there which tout the benefits of H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) therapy, but they are not supported by any clinical research. Supposedly, IV administation of H2O2 increases oxygenation, but this is bogus science.
Current treatment regimens for pulmonary fibrosis include steroidal therapy, immunomodulating agents (DMARDS) and surgery (lung transplantation).

you can do a google search it'll have a wide variety of info just type google in the address box
