21 capsules and 30 capsules
by: David

Emmy,

Thank you for your question.

1 cap tid is 1 capsule three times daily

1 capsule multiplied by 3 (3 times per day) multiplied by 7 days equals 21 capsules.

1 capsule multiplied by 3 (3 times per day) multiplied by 10 days equals 30 capsules.

Are you getting a knack for it now, Emmy?
