Preparation & dosage

Pills. Grind the herbs into a fine powder and use wine to form into pills.

Take 6-9 grams, 1-2 times a day.

As the original formula includes 30 grams of Hai Dai (Laminaria japonica ARESCH) which can be used interchangeably with Hai Zao, the dosage of Hai Zao can be doubled.

Reduce dosages appropriately to prepare a decoction.
