Oregano Oil Dosage

The following suggested usage is based on personal use and customer experience. You would have to listen to your body and make adjustments accordingly. Remember always use your best judgment and caution when using herbs, supplements and any kind of medicine, when in doubt stop using it.

Internally:

You can take our Organic Oil of Oregano by mouth. It is very strong, so when using it internally, drink a glass of water if you have to. The proper usage is to let it do its thing and the burning sensation will subside in a minute or two. For treating ailments take undiluted 1–4 drops of one to three times a day with water, or juice or place 1-4 drops under the tongue and let it work for 5–15 seconds and then drink a glass of water, or juice. During treatment of ailments repeat, as many days as you feel you need to. For preventative usage take 1–4 drops once a day with water, or juice. Most people will use oregano oil on daily basis for the duration of the Winter Months.

For people that don’t like the taste of the oregano oil especially children. We always suggest to them to put a drop of oregano oil into tomato juice, V8, soups, tomato sauce, stews, and salads, which will hide the taste. It is spicy, so don’t overdo it. 

You can also put your drops into an empty gel capsule and swallow with water.

Oregano Oil for Congestion

If you are taking it for congestion, you should place 4-8 drops under your tongue for about a minute and then take deep breaths through your mouth and exhale through your nose.
Do this for about a minute or two 3-4 times a Day for as long as your nose feels stuffy.
I recommend your first dosage prior to a shower in the Morning. You will clear the congestion in the shower.

Oregano Oil for Sinus Infection

If you are suffering from a very bad sinus infection, please use the Oregano Oil as suggested above and also follow up with placing 4-6 drops in a cup of hot water and inhale the vapors through your nose. This will give you instant relief from congestion.

Oregano Oil as a Cold or Flu Prevention

If you are cramped in a tiny office with people sneezing and coughing and you start getting that funny feeling in your nose or start getting a sore throat, take 1- 2 drops of oregano oil with the dropper and squeeze the oil on the back of your tongue and swallow fast. You want the oregano oil go directly to your sore throat where the germ is trying to settle in. Be ready to take a glass of water, just in case you don’t like the burning sensation in your throat. Take oregano oil three times that day and you will feel the difference.
