==Special Precautions of Dichloroacetic Acid==
* In the United States, only physicians involved in research with sodium dichloroacetate can obtain it legally, because it is not an approved medication or supplement. People may be able to participate in clinical trials with the treatment, and some have obtained it online, according to the ACS. The ACS warns that some suppliers sell only industrial or technical-grade sodium dichloroacetate, which is not manufactured with the same quality standards as the pharmaceutical-grade form.
