I don't recall if he gave any specifics or not in the film. It sounded similar to a Myers' cocktail.

About half way down the blog at this link

Ryan talks about Dr. Karen Bullington in Marietta, Georgia, who is in a clinic that was part of the Fibro and Fatigue Centers.

In October 2012, an article by Ryan states,

http://college.usatoday.com/2012/10/02/opinion-the-real-story-of-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/

"The treatment plan she ordered was robust. I would swallow about 20 pills a day (mostly vitamins and supplements), give myself a shot weekly and come to IV treatments every two to four weeks. Five years later, I still follow it religiously."
