Guest guest Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Hi everyone, What is the normal dose of dessicated adrenals? I am on one a day multi-vitamin which has adrenal, pancreas & liver @ 20mg each and then 2 a day of the adrenal pills which each has adrenal tissue 250mg and adrenal cortex 200mg. So that makes 500mg, 400mg and 20mg. I ask because in the last few days I go to bed and fall asleep about 11.30 pm and sleep well till about 3am and wake as though it was 5 or 6 and either lay there, or have to get up to eat, till 6am when I take a nap for about 1-2 hours. Am I getting too much or is the cortisol kicking in early? I feel a bit weary at times but not as I used to but sure would like to get a full night again like I had a few weeks ago. Anyone else had this? Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Dawn, That happened to me on adrenal supplement when I was dosing it twice a day. My late day dose seemed to interrupt my sleep a lot. When I began taking my whole dose first thing in the morning, the sleep problems went away. adrenals > > > Hi everyone, > What is the normal dose of dessicated adrenals?

" I didn't actually get a copy of the result because it came in several days later from another lab. I will ask for a copy of it when i see him next.
