Recommended Dosage
Three capsules two times per day equal not less than 30 grams of bulk medicinals. However, because our extraction process is so much more efficient than stove-top decoction, we believe this amount of extract is actually more like the equivalent of 45-60 grams of bulk-dispensed herbs.
Cautions
This formula should not be used for distention and pain due to phlegm or dampness.
