*This means the total calculation by weight of Ginkgo Biloba is given in the morning, then again at bedtime. 


Example:  Child weighs 55lbs. X 3mg = 165mg


So give your child the closest dose, which is 180mg (because capsules only come in 60mg or 120mg) in the morning, 180mg at mid-day and 180mg at bedtime.  Ginkgo has a 4-6 hour half-life, so half the dose is used within 4-6 hours.  We want to keep a constant amount of ginkgo in the system to fight off the GABA.
