Patent Claims:	1. A method for treatment of Fabry disease in a human patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective dose of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or a salt thereof, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides one or more of: a. a mean maximum drug plasma concentration (C.sub.max) bioequivalent to about 9 .mu.M; b. a mean time to maximum drug plasma concentration (T.sub.max) bioequivalent to about 3 hours; or c. a mean drug plasma half-life (t.sub.1/2) bioequivalent to about 3 hours, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof is administered every other day. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof is administered as an oral dosage form. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the oral dosage form comprises a tablet, a capsule or a solution. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof enhances .alpha.-galactosidase A activity. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the patient is male. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the patient is female. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a C.sub.max bioequivalent to about 9 .mu.M. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a T.sub.max bioequivalent to about 3 hours. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a t.sub.1/2 bioequivalent to about 3 hours. 10. A method for treatment of Fabry disease in a human patient in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective dose of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or a salt thereof, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides one or more of: a. a mean maximum drug plasma concentration (C.sub.max) within 20% of 9 .mu.M; b. a mean time to maximum drug plasma concentration (T.sub.max) within 20% of 3 hours; or c. a mean drug plasma half-life (t.sub.1/2) within 20% of 3 hours, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof is administered every other day. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof is administered as an oral dosage form. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the oral dosage form comprises a tablet, a capsule or a solution. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin or salt thereof enhances .alpha.-galactosidase A activity. 14. The method of claim 10, wherein the patient is male. 15. The method of claim 10, wherein the patient is female. 16. The method of claim 10, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a C.sub.max within 20% of 9 .mu.M. 17. The method of claim 10, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a T.sub.max within 20% of 3 hours. 18. The method of claim 10, wherein the therapeutically effective dose provides a t.sub.1/2 within 20% of 3 hours.
