Lesson 9: Dose check before prescribing

Any medical drug, including herbal drugs, should be used within the recommended therapeutic dose range. This is listed for all herbs in database, and will appear on screen, for each of the herbs in the combination, when the practioner has chosen a prescription for the patient, and clicks on Dose and dispensing. It is the responsibility of the practitioner to prescribe herbs in appropriate dose for the age, constitution, and condition of the patient, and to to check for updates on dose for a specific herb. Some herbs have different recommended doses for the treatment of different disorders, eg. Vitex (see B&M).
