Guest guest Posted May 1, 2000 Report Share Posted May 1, 2000 Hi Ron <Poor wintergreen - it always gets a bad rap! Actually, 10 drops (at 25mg each) of Wintergreen or Birch oils equals ONE standard, 250 mg tablet! Wintergreen is safe for topical use, even during pregnancy. > If Tisserand and Balacs say that 10 drops wintergreen equal 21 aspirins, who am I to argue? A drop does not weigh 25mg! There's obviously less than one drop of methyl sal. in each aspirin. Please tell me where your information is from. They also recommend that it is not used dermally - so I'd certainly never use it in pregnancy. Not worth the risk.
