Renee, You can dilute it or use it full strengh. If you dilute it and don't use it within a few hours you need to use distilled water. At 400 ppm you should use 5-6 drops a day for daily long term use. Or calculate the equivalent amount comparible to the amount of EIS you normallt would use. To be accurate you really need to determine how many drops per ounce you get with your dropper. I do like using it as a disinfectant spray or dip. For that I usually use it at 30 to 40 ppm. Sometimes I use even higher ppm topically for a resistant infection. Dilution is simple. For 40 ppm use 9:1, water to silver citrate. For 20 ppm use 19:1, water to silver citrate. For 10 ppm use 39:1, water to silver citrate. When I used it for parvo I diluted it to 50 ppm using Pediolyte to dilute it. I also added a little grapefruit seed extract as an added precaution. I don't know that the GSE is needed. We used a dropper to put some of the mixture in the mouth of the puppy every 10 to 15 minutes till it looked better. Maybe a couple of hours. Then the frequency was reduced. If the puppy had not responded we were prepared to give an enema using the mixture

I thought it was you but wasn't sure. :-) Ok--so, I wanted to ask you--how do I use this special CS? Just use a drop or two of it in a glass of water? Or the cat's water dish? Or would an adult just put a few drops on their tongue? Or is it always diluted? And how was it used for parvo? I know they give CS orally and rectally for parvo. Is this used this way? The bottle came while I was gone for that 2 months and so when I got back I had forgot to ask about it.
