But up to a week of use should not cause any problems. 1 teaspoon of licorice root in a tea 4 times a day avery 4 hours is roughly equivelent to 15 to 20 mg of cortisone. Licorice works by slowing the breakdown of cortisone in the liver, so it keeps what you make in the system longer. Tish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
