Dear patient
Thanks for the query. Usually arginine has to be taken in doses that appear too high, like the one you mention (eg. total of 6 grams), but this is a usual dose for an adult; whenever starting a new medication always keep in close communication with your Ob provider.
Hope this helps wish you the best,
