synthetic - involving or of the nature of synthesis (combining separate elements to form a coherent whole) as opposed to analysis; limnology is essentially a synthetic science composed of elements...that extend well beyond the limits of biology- P.S.Welch.
L-theanine is most effective in the range of 50-200 mg, with the effect being felt within 30 minutes and lasting for 8-10 hours. Individuals with high stress levels may increase their dosage of L-theanine to at least 100 mg, with no more than 600 mg being taken in a six hour period. FDA recommends a maximum dose of 1200 mg daily, although the reason for this limit is not clear, due to its demonstrated safety. There are no known adverse reactions to L-theanine and no drug interactions have been reported. L-theanine is not affected by food and may be taken anytime, as needed.
The Committee on Drugs has previously suggested in its Emergency Drug Dose Statement (Pediatrics 1988;81:462-465) that a dose of 0.01 to 0.1 mg/kg of naloxone would be appropriate, with a minimum dose of 0.5 mg for newborns. In an earlier commentary, Naloxone Use in Newborns (Pediatrics 1980;65:667-669), a dose of 0.01 mg/kg was recommended. To clarify this wide dose range, the following statement is to be substituted. Naloxone (Narcan) Dose: (Intoxication with opiates) IV, intratrachealâ0.1 mg/kg from birth (including premature infants) until age 5 years or 20 kg of weight, at which time a minimum 2-mg dose should be used.
