DOSAGE
The dosage of herbal remedies is subject to many variables such as age, weight and digestive system condition of the patient. The recommended range of dosage for an adult is 10-30 drops 2-3 times a day, i.e. between 20 and 90 drops a day. Generally speaking, one uses higher doses for acute cases and lower ones for chronic cases.
The above suggested dosage should be reduced in children and the elderly (in proportion to their age) and also in patients whose digestive system is weak.
