Most studies have shown the best recommended daily allowance of black cohosh to contain 1 mg of terpene glycosides per 20 mg tablet. This is often referred to as the brand name of Remifemin and should be taken twice a day, for a maximum period for 4 to 8 weeks. If it is taken in its dry root powder form, the dosage will vary between 40 to 200 mg.
