Guest guest Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 First off... remember my Hannah is tube fed and everything (all meds and herbs) goes into the tube. I have a couple of questions for you, the experts. ) I've started her on echinacea, one morning and one at night, and it says not to use it for more than 8 weeks straight. But I read here on the list that I should alternate 1 week on and 1 week off. Can someone enlighten me? I am pleased with how well it crushes and dissolves in water. That's a real plus with me! Also...I started her on Acidophilus capsules. But the bottle says to take one hour after a meal. Since it's very time consuming to give her stuff in between meals (lots of prep work) I try to give 'extras' with meals. That way I'm not pouring something in every hour of the day. Would it hurt to go ahead and give it with a meal? It's not water soluble and mixing it isn't easy. I could however blend it with the hand-held blender. Thanks in advance for your suggestions. I haven't called the doc yet (kinda shy and not wanting to 'bother' him with a situation like ours) but I'll work up to it. I'm also still learning and coming to some kind of conclusion about all this... sometimes wild sounding... information. ) Mary Jane ¸.·°ˆˆ°·.¸§¸.·°ˆˆ°·.¸ ( Mary Jane )aicardisyndrome.org °.‹ ¸.·°ˆˆ°·.¸§¸.·°ˆˆ°·.¸ °•§ Hannah ) ° ‹ 10-26-93 › ° ______________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
