Chris, in your (as usual! ) helpful and interesting post on herbal potency
and dosages you wrote:

<<
 I have found that most people don't realize that one should start patients
 off on low dose 450 mg capsules twice a day and work up to as many as 3-4
 capsules TID or QID to get the full effect (Yup, that's a lot of capsules).
 Some moms don't need more than 2 TID, but many won't show improvement until
 they get up to the higher dose. >>

Can you translate these abbreviations into patient-speak for the non-hcps and
DPharms among us?  Thanks!
