CSA dosage after ATG

Hi All,

My daughter had an H-ATG on Dec-2010. but still she has not response. we have doubt for CSA dose.

Our doctor start CSA at 10th day of ATG after stopping the predinsone and 0.3 ml twice a day as her weight is 11 kg. But after 2 month doctor do the CSA level test and level was only 64. so doctor increase dose 0.5 ml.

we feel she cannot take the advantage of CSA quickly after ATG due to lower dose of CSA.

Please give the advise if my thought is true. If true do we need to try second H-ATG with same day of ATG and with correct dose?
