There is no fixed limit for everybody, that is, each of us may have a different limit, but I know people who are taking 20+ per day.
High Dose of Thiamine gave me my energy back.
Doctor Fahn says his limit is 2,000mg daily
My understanding is the dosage of c/l that causes dyskinesia determines you maximum dose.
We’re at 8 pills per day of 25/100. Significant dyskinesia but Parkinsonism kicks in like crazy if we don’t take a pill every 2 hr and 15 minutes. Able to sleep through the night with no pills but can’t walk until 30 minutes after first pill in morning.
thank you to all for the info. helped a lot!
