    There is no proven safe or effective dose of sweet woodruff. Nonetheless, a tea of sweet woodruff made by pouring 3 cups of boiled water over herb (1 ounce of dry herb or 1/2 ounce of fresh herb) and letting the tea steep for 10 minutes has been used.

    Tinctures of sweet woodruff made by using 8 ounces of dried herb mixed with 1/2 cups of alcohol and 4 cups of water have also been taken.
