General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
For a person with 40years of age, and 75 kg, the dose of the enchorate will be 500mg, two times a day. for 3 years and if no fits in these 3 years it is to be stopped by tapering the dose.
As she got the fit now, she should use it 3 years from now. If she get fit after stopping she may have to use for life.
She should avoid the cold tablets, antihistamines, and some antibiotics for life.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
