It varies by test, but I think only about 10ccs on most. Thanks for the tip!

Was the bloodwork for the diflucan or nystatin? If it was for Nystatin, can I ask how often you had to have it done and how high of a dose of Nystatin that was for? Thanks!

It was for Flucanazole which is Diflucan. But you can do the same test for Nystatin. We do it every 3 months. A regular MD can order it. It's a simple blood test for liver enzymes like AST, ALT, etc.
We were doing, I think, either 1/2 tsp or 1 tsp as the dose.
