I had to go look at the container because thankfully I have only had to use it one time and that was almost two years ago. It is 30C. That is the strength you need. You dissolve it in a teaspoon of distilled water and drip it in the bird's mouth and nostrils, make sure they move their beak up and down so you know it's getting into their sinuses. You don't have to use the whole teaspoon, just a few drops..five or six, as I remember. Look at the OP's instructions. The hen we treated started out limping, later was unable to walk or even stand, she was rolling on her back. She was a pullet at the time. I have no idea what her problem was, but we treated her with the Hypericum, and as far as I know she has made a full recovery. She is a hen now, of course, and currently tryiing to produce a family.

And, do you know what 200C means? My vet prescribed this for my bird 2x a day who eventually died.

30C? That's not something I can find. Can you post a picture of your bottle or explain what "30C" means?

I have no idea how to explain it. Yes, I can post a picture of the bottle, but if you Google it, you should see a picture of it yourself, as I did. Look I am not the expert here. I simply said what worked for us, and if you look through this thread, you'll see there are plenty of other people who can say the same, and some who can't. I did not start this thread! I came across this thread when I was looking for solutions for our pullet. and it worked. That's all I can tell you really. If you want to know more specifics, I suggest you call any health food or vitamin store, and explain what you are trying to find out. They are knowledgeable, since they sell these products. They can tell you far more than I can, I'm sure, and maybe even more than a veterinarian could. We got ours from a store called the Raisin Rack here in Ohio. Not all health food stores carry it, but a lot do, and it can also be found on line.

No, I'm sorry I do not. Refer to my previous post. Or look at some of the others. there are 48 pages in this thread? Seriously? Surely, there must be some answers in here somewhere, right?

All bottles I have seen are in mg, so please do post a picture of your bottle or post a link that shows this "30c".

I don't think that an actual dose is suggested anywhere in this thread.

yeah, it is, because that's how I knew what to get. It's in there somewhere.

boiron makes it. AS far as I can tell, it's all 30C. It's right there on line. Google. it.

So you ave no idea what 30c means?

C's were an older medical measurement which if I recall correctly were swapped out in some places for different units of measurement. Not sure if this is the measurement applied to this case, but it may be: 'c' (centi) = 0.01.

Best wishes.

It's a dilution level. Seems like homeopathy dilution rate is similar to Richter scale- it's diluted 1:10 each time. Or something like that. It's been too long since I thought about it to be sure of rate ;-) but 30C would be, in essence, the strength.
