FAQs

How many drops do I take?
Start with 21 drops (0.7 ml) three times a day in a little water on an empty stomach. If that suits you, the label allows up to 54 drops (1.8 ml) three times daily.

What does dong quai taste like?
Dong quai has a warm, sweet-bitter and slightly celery-like aroma, since it belongs to the same plant family. In a little water, as the label directs, the 21-drop dose goes down quickly.
