See MSM The Definitive guide for the reference dose for humans being
between 2-8 grams a day. Under supervision 40-60 grams per day has been
used in divided doses. And up to 200 g a day in IV use. for allergies
the typical dose is 3-6 g.

60-500 mg/kg is referenced as an animal dose in horses and dogs. Also
recommendations of 30 g per day in horses. The higher doses are split
into two doses and fed with food. For a 600 lb pony the dosage based on
the former would be 18-36 grams per day in two divided doses with feed.

The author Stanley Jacob MD is the developer for DMSO use in organ
transport and health. He and his partner Robert Hershler PhD developed
MSM. The book is available from Amazon and summarizes the current
research Cr 2003.
