Stephen,

I decided to give feverfew a try based on what you were telling me a couple of weeks back. I just had a few questions.

Since I've had problems swallowing pills since I've gotten sick, I picked up the extract. Is that okay? It says it contains 1:1 feverfew, and a minimum of 3mg/ml of sesquiterpene lactones. Is all that good? If not, what should I look for?

The dosage says 15 drops twice daily. Is that correct? And since the stuff is like a black tarry substance, can you take it with liquid or a meal, or does it have to be left alone in your mouth like a homeopathic remedy?

Also, how long do you have to take it before you should notice some results, so that if you don't by then you can give up on it?

And finally, are there any other vitamins or herbs that you should worry about feverfew interacting with? Any side effects at all to worry about, and can you take it continuously and indefinitely if it works, or should you give your body a break from it?

Thanks for the help!
