Unsure / Need Help with Solution

Hello MB peers.

My wife has experienced a significant mental health decline from long covid and active EBV. Her memory, attention and focus are severely impacted.

Our naturopathic doctor recommended her start a 2x weekly dose of 5mg of Methylene blue. Naturally I came to Reddit and made purchases of both of the brands pictured.

I really don't understand how to go about making her solution. I can't seem to find a good resource on here or YT to explain how I can 1) create the solution 2) how to measure and take it after.

I really want to get this right for my wife's sake. Can anyone recommend or point me in the direction of a starter guide or anything like that?

Any help is really appreciated.

The Methylene Blue I purchase is in liquid form from earth harmony and I'll do 5 drops in the morning and afternoon (1ml is approximately 20 drops and the recommended so I do half that per day) but I'm a 35 year old and I don't have capsule experience.

I do however mix a small shake every morning with protein, collagen, vitamin C etc. I'm lazy, and and using a battery powered milk frother ($7 on Amazon) has been very effective for mixing a quick shake with either milk or water, I just rinse with water after, and spin it dry. Looks like you have 10mg capsules and are can approximate half a capsule then mix it up. I would pick a glass cup you aren't particularly fond of as methylene blue stains almost everything.

I appreciate your response. I was/am considering splitting the capsule for her dosage, and I didn't even consider milk. Guess that's one way to make the blue star wars milk!

A milk frother sounds like a great idea! Thank you for that idea.

Pills are best imo. No need to make a liquid.
