Suggestions and Administrations of red raspberry.:

How much is usually taken?

 Dosage and Administration:3-10 g.
 Dried leaves: 4~8g or by infusion
 Liquid extract: 1:1 in 25% alcohol, 4~8ml.

 Traditionally, raspberry leaf tea is prepared by pouring 1 cup (250 ml) boiling water over 1~2 teaspoons (5~10 grams) of the herb and steeping for ten to fifteen minutes. Up to 6 cups (1500 ml) per day may be necessary for acute problems such as diarrhea or sore throats due to a cold, while less (two to three cups [500~750 ml]) is used for preventive use during pregnancy. By itself, raspberry is usually not a sufficient treatment for diarrhea. Tincture, 3/4~1 teaspoon (4~8 ml) three times per day, may also be taken.

 Additional Comments:

 Raspberry vinegars were a popular traditional remedy for sore throats and coughs. The juice from the berries has been used in folk medicine as a remedy for fevers, childhood illnesses and cystitis. Gerard believed ' the fruit is good to be given to those that have weake and queasie stomackes'. The fruit is also used for dyeing purposes. In Chinese medicine, raspberry roots and leaves are prescribed for trauma, bone and muscle pain, absent periods and diarrhoea. The wild North American raspberry, R.strigosus may be used in the same way as R. idaeus.

 Are there any side effects or interactions? Raspberry leaf may cause mild loosening of stools and nausea. Otherwise, use of the herb appears to be safe.

 Are there any drug interactions? Certain medicines may interact with red raspberry.

 Cautions on Use: Those with fire due to deficiency of the kidneys, causing short urination, should not take wild raspberry.Avoid high doses of the leaves during early pregnancy as they can stimulate uterine contractions.
