Yohimbine Dosage - How Much Should I
Take?
Taking the
correct yohimbine dosage is important. This will ensure
that it is effective and that you won't experience much side effects.
But I need to make something very clear. Yohimbine is not the same as
taking the bark extract yohimbe. Many people confuse the two names.
Here are the facts.
The
herb yohimbe contains in it the active ingredient yohimbine. Yohimbine
is the chemical that helps treat erectile dysfunction and to boost
libido. It is a prescription medication sold in Canada and the United
States.
Typically, when you buy yohimbe extract, it contains
around 2% of yohimbine. Always buy standardized extract so that you
know exact how much yohimbine you are getting in each pill.
Dosage of
Yohimbine
We
know the recommended dosage of yohimbine because it is a prescription
drug that has go through many research studies. The typical
dosage of the ingredient yohimbine used in research study is between 15
to 30 mg once a day.
So if a product comes as a capsule
of 451 mg of yohimbe bark, look at the standardize
amount of yohimbine inside. Continuing with this example, it states that
it has 2% yohimbine alkaloid = 9 mg. That means each capsule
gives
you 9 mg of yohimbine.
451
mg of yohimbe bark
standardized to 2% yohimbine (9 mg) |
Amount
of yohimbine (mg) |
1 capsule |
9 |
2
capsules |
18 |
3
capsules |
27 |
So a safe dosage, based on clinical research studies done on yohimbine
would be to take 1 to 3 capsules once daily.
Always
start with the lowest dose possible. It the able pill was in a
tablet format, you can even cut the tablet in half and take 4.5 mg of
yohimbine to start. For best effect, take the pill at least 1 hour
prior to sexual activity.
Consult with your healthcare provider if you need more information.
