Dr Cathcart's Table of Vitamin C dosages
Newport posted this before. The sicker you are, the more vitamin C it can take to reach bowel tolerance too.
Take a look at this chart.
Taking the Pharma grade ascorbic acid powder is an easier way to get it, instead of trying to take it via tablets. The one I use, is 5G per teaspoon.

Ascorbate Dosage levels
Acute Illness: Oral dosage to bowel tolerance level depending of severity of illness, per Dr. Cathcart’s table. Severe colds may need 30 to 100 grams/day. Very few doctors use Ascorbate effectively
2 tablespoons Vitamin C powder/hour for two days to several weeks, then decrease gradually. Quitting abruptly results in “induced scurvy” condition. Vitamin C potentiates
Antibiotics , reduces allergic reaction to their use, and stops bacteria spread.
Chronic Illness: Polymicrobial infections may need 6, 12, 18, 24, or 32 grams per day of Vitamin C, with dosages evenly spaced (every 2, 3 or 4 hrs). Timed release tablets are worse than spaced dosage. Duration of use of Ascorbate for serious chronic intracellular infection and cancer may be forever.
