-Sure Phill,

I don't have grams per dose. The decoction notes in the book say for

every 30 grams of herbs 200-300mls of water should be used. The

decoction should be boiled down to 2 cups. In the normal fashion. 1

cup per day Dose. 1/2 cup in am 1/2 in PM.

 

Here is the specifics for Liang xue wu hua tang. The book gives a

range. It really depends on the patient. Use your own judgement. My

professor says to start very low. Infact, lower than suggested

amount with people who have never taken herbal decoctions before. So

if the range is 9- 15 grams start at 6 and look at the individual

ingrediants. These all look to be safe. The only one I am not sure

of is Ji guan hua. I couldn't find it in my materia medica.

Pi pa qing fei yin-

All the doses are the same as the posting.

Tao hong si wu tang-

looks right

I did make one typo. Use RICE wine instead of red wine with Wu wei

xiao du yin

 

Hope this is what your looking for.
