Oregano Oil Drops by Swanson
Are you looking for oregano oil drops that allow you to determine the dosage yourself? This bottle from Swanson contains 29 ml of liquid oregano oil with a dropper cap. Each 4-drop dose provides 13 mg of oregano essential oil, with at least 3.5% carvacrol. One bottle provides 170 doses, so it lasts a long time. The oil comes in a convenient bottle, making it easy to dose and take with you.
What carvacrol is and why it is on the label
Carvacrol is the best-known plant compound in oregano. It gives the herb its characteristic, pungent aroma. In these drops, the carvacrol content is standardized to at least 3.5%, so you know how much you get in each dose. That is the advantage of a standardized content: the amount of carvacrol is fixed and does not vary from bottle to bottle. In addition to carvacrol, the oil naturally contains other aromatic compounds, such as thymol. Together, they give oregano its distinctive character.
13 mg of essential oil per dose
Each 4-drop dose contains 13 mg of oregano essential oil. The rest of the drop consists of a carrier oil in which the essential oil is dissolved. An essential oil is so concentrated that it is not used undiluted, which is why it is provided here in a diluted, doseable form. Many people wonder whether 13 mg is not a small amount. But essential oil is highly concentrated, so a small amount goes a long way. This is how 29 ml still provides 170 doses.
Why people use oregano oil
You probably know oregano from the kitchen, but the oil has long been used as a supplement. Oregano oil may contribute to the health of the stomach and intestines*. In addition, oregano (Origanum vulgare) is traditionally used to support digestion*. And oregano (Origanum vulgare) supports respiratory health and natural resistance*. These are the reasons why many people take oregano oil as a regular supplement.
Drops instead of a capsule
With these oregano oil drops, you decide how much you take and how. The standard dose is 4 drops per day, most easily mixed with some water or another liquid. Pure oregano oil has a strong, pungent taste, so diluting it makes it more pleasant. The dropper cap allows you to dose accurately, drop by drop. And because one bottle contains 170 doses, you do not need to reorder often.
In short: oregano oil drops with a fixed content of at least 3.5% carvacrol, in a convenient bottle with a dropper cap. We state the facts about what is in it, so you can make an informed choice yourself. If you have questions about use or dosage, read the accompanying information or ask your doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 3.5% carvacrol mean?
Carvacrol is the main plant compound in oregano. A minimum content of 3.5% means that this proportion is fixed in the essential oil, so that each dose delivers the same amount. The content therefore does not vary from bottle to bottle.
Can you take the drops undiluted?
You can, but pure oregano oil tastes very strong. Most people therefore mix the 4 drops with water or another liquid, which makes it easier to take.
13 mg per dose, isn't that a small amount?
Essential oil is highly concentrated, so a small amount goes a long way. 13 mg of oregano essential oil per dose is therefore a common amount. This also means that a 29 ml bottle provides 170 doses.
What is the difference between these drops and oregano oil capsules?
The contents are similar, but the form differs. With drops, you determine the dosage yourself and mix with liquid. A softgel is swallowed whole without tasting it. If you want to dose yourself, drops are convenient.
Why is the oil in a carrier oil?
Oregano essential oil is so concentrated that you should not use it undiluted. That's why it is mixed with a carrier oil, in a dosage-appropriate ratio. This way, you can safely drop and ingest it.
