Factors That Affect Dosage

WEIGHT-BASED DOSES

Most dosages are based on an adult dose for a 150-pound adult so when it comes to giving your child something, you’ll be giving them a much smaller dose. Same goes if you, the adult, weight more or less than 150 pounds. You will need to adjust the dosage higher or lower depending upon your needs.

NUTRITIONAL VS. MEDICINAL USES

Using herbs for tonic or nutritional purposes will have much larger doses than herbs used medicinal purposes.

ACUTE VS. CHRONIC AILMENTS

Herbal preparations taken for acute situations (as in you need help right now) will be given in smaller, frequent doses whereas preparations taken for chronic situations (as in the problem has been ongoing for 6 months or longer) will be given in larger, less frequent doses.
