A 3-year-old boy presents with progressive lethargy and confusion over the last 5 days. He lives with his parents in a home that was built in the early 1900s. His parents report that "his tummy has been hurting" for the last 3 weeks and that he is constipated. He eats and drinks normally, but occasionally tries things that are not food. Abdominal exam shows no focal tenderness. Hemoglobin is 8 g/dL and hematocrit is 24%. Venous lead level is 55 ug/dL. Which therapy is most appropriate for this boy's condition?
