Supplementation of DHEA appears to be effective in persons over 40 in the dosage range of 25-50 mg, while prolonged usage of 100 mg appears to be safe in this demographic. While the usage of DHEA in young persons for the purpose of testosterone enhancement is not clear, it tends to be used at 200 mg for this purpose. *
25 to 50 mg per day is the recommended dosage for DHEA. If you choose to take a dosage of 50 mg, it is advisable that you divide the everyday amount into half (25 mg). For those patients who are suffering from AIDS/HIV, mood disorders, and depression, a high dosage of 500 mg each day should be given.
Although it is not yet proven, DHEA can be used a topical agent. Patients who are below the age of 18 years are not advised to take this supplement. It is highly recommended that you start at the lowest dose and gradually increase it when you have become familiar by its effects and workings on your body. *
