Buhner herbs- can i get some help with starting dosing to avoid herxing.

I have bartonella and am doing Buhner herbs. Can I please get some insight on how to go " low and slow" and like what dosages maybe you guys started with and the days/weeks it took for you to increase it. Im thinking 5 drops every 5 days or could that be too much?

Yes tinctures. Im thinking of just adding in either iha or Chinese skull cap. I just don't know what would be a reasonable dose. Another memebe seberg mentioned that this is a marathon not a race so im really keeping thug in mind.

Are you going to tske the herbs 3x day?

Try to get all herbs in at low dose and then increase each one.
Example:
Start with one herb at a time - a couple drops, if that is fine after a couple days take a couple drops twice day, then a couple drops three times a day.
Then increase to 3 or 4 drops three times day.
After a few days, increase that herb to 5 drops three times daily.

After a few days on that....Then you can start the next herb - same way...

When you're taking all the herbs at low dose three X daily you can increase each herb one at a time.

If at anytime you herx...you can drop back to previous dose and hold that for awhile until herx subsides...then slowly increase again.


So try to get all the herbs in at low dose and then you can raise the dose of each.
This is because the herbs work synergistically .

A forum moderator - CD3764 passed this information on to us when she was consulting with one of Buhner's recommended herbalists.
