In our clinic there are typically two different forms of prescriptions:
●Powdered herbs – Prescribed by bottle containing powdered granules. The dosage of your prescription will be available upon your request. A measuring spoon is provided. Normally, you would take 5-6 level scoops of a gram spoon twice daily. However many spoonful’s you take depends on the size of the spoon it accompanies the bottle. (In the old days, the spoon size was smaller so we used 3-4 spoonful’s for each session. Now it is necessary to take at least 5 scoops to make normal dosage.) This herb powder is taken dissolved into one cup of lukewarm or hot water. Powdered form is the most common prescription we fill.
●Capsules - Each capsule is filled by hand with the correct dosage of powdered herbs. Due to the time and labor intensity, the capsule is the most expensive prescription, usually doubling the normal cost of filling your prescription and often requires an extra day of preparation. In addition, to reach the total amount of herbs for your prescription, you may need to take 10-20 capsules a day.
