I have read through the Illness & Medications threads until I'm slightly blurry-eyed without finding a reccomendation for dosage rates for Praz. How many milligrams per liter or 100 liters? :? :(

thanks,

Depends on the concentration of prazi in the tablet.

Different brands have different dose rates.

Just follow the instructions on the bottle.

Merrilyn,
That is why I am asking the question. What strength should someone be shooting for. Jungle Labs doesn't give a concentration; Illusn said in another post that he can get Praz in tablets of 100gm. So far I haven't found a source in the US such as his, but if i could, how much would I use?

thanks,

Praz in tablets of 100gm.

I think you misread my post the tablets i get are "wormrid" Each tablet contains 100mg Praziquantel.

at this dosage i use 1 tablet for 20L(5 US gal) of water

Thanks ILLUSN,
Not so much a matter of misreading as mistyping. :oops: :oops:
I've spent too much time today staring at this monitor. :shock:
