Dunno, usually put that into a dropper bottle and take a dropper full at a time..
If I was diagnosed with Aureus and had a hollow leg the last thing I would do is skimp on dosage..
As for the poultice I would run it through the food processor and apply. Why worry about the alcohol no more than a half a glass of wine for an all day dosing..
Funny what people worry about.. its almost as if a Demon had your ear..
