I have seen dosages range from 1 teaspoon 3 times a day, to 1-1/2 tablespoons every 3 to 4 hours. I recommend starting on a lower dosage to see how your body tolerates it and increase the dosage from there. • The adult dosage is 1 teaspoon daily to boost the immune system and prevent illness. • If sick, take 1 tablespoon 3 times a day. • Children can take 1 teaspoon daily to prevent illness or 1 teaspoon 3 times a day when suffering from a cold or flu. • Do not give to infants under the age of 12 months, especially since the syrup contains honey.
