Thats one dose.
Use the same mixture for subsequent doses, if required.
Dont refrigerate the mixture. Put it anywhere covered, away from direct sunlight.
PRECAUTIONS:

I want to know that that do i have to stop my levothyroxin before starting this medicine ?
As I am taking really high dose of medicine i.e 125 mcg levothyroxine it wont be possible for me to stop it immediately...
samneedshelp last decade
If no weaning is needed, you can stop it and we will see if the remedy alone can provide a cure, otherwise the allopathic med will need to continue.
fitness last decade
i am very thankful to fitness for replying to my case ...but as my case is very acute I would also like to have any of the doctors in the forum to have a look on my case too..
Thank you

There are several posters who come specifically requesting a homeopathic doctor, there is nothing wrong with that.
You on the other hand went ahead with everything and in the end mentioned about your specific requirements.
Please have some respect for the time people like me are putting in for nothing in return.
I am done with your case, seek whatever guidance you want.
