Guest guest Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Selma - You can use this standard called " 's Rule " to figure out a dose for your daughter. This is used as a golden standard in herbal medicine. Glad you are able to treat her! Good luck. Jnanda 's Rule Divide the child's weight (in pounds) by 150 to get the approximate fraction of the adult dose to give to the child. Example: For a 50 pound child give 50/150 (or 1/3) of the adult dose. Therefore, if the adult dose is 30 drops taken 3 times per day, the child's dose will be 10 drops taken 3 times per day (not 30 drops taken 1 time per day). > > I introduced andrographis tincture yesterday for my 2 year old.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Thanks Jnanda! Problem is that I don't really know adult's dose of andro in tincture (Biopure). I'm testing about 15 drops on myself today to see if they act as 3 andro pills (Plan. Herb) brand I was taking before. 10 drops was much too low. Thanks anyway, Selma > > Selma - > > You can use this standard called " 's Rule " to figure out a dose > for your daughter.
