Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The usual prescribed dosage is dependent on the attending physician, but, the standard prescribed dose is usually 1 gm. thrice a day up to a maximum of 6 gm. per day.
So, you may take this as your doctor has suggested and if in doubt, please discuss with your consultant before proceeding further.
Along with this medication, it is also essential that you improve your natural nutrition and take adequate rest, preferably in the left lateral position.
