How much alcohol is in Weleda Medicines?
Weleda’s standard 15 drop (or 1mL) dose contains 3 drops (200mg) of alcohol (ethanol). In comparison, one average slice of bread contains between 100mg and 200mg of alcohol. The American Academy of Paediatrics recommends that a newborn (3kg) baby, should be given no more than 3mL of alcohol (ethanol) in a single dose – this is about 20 times the amount contained in a dose of Weleda’s Medicines or Homoeopathic products.
