re: Deplin - I believe that Deplin is methylfolate. not folate or folinic acid. It's the methylated form of folate.
Deplin I believe comes in 7.5 - 15 mg doses. When I started my initial dosing was around 10mcg per day or less (considerably less than 7.5mg). Any more would cause ++anxiety or fatigue. My body seems to respond that way. Mild overdose = anxiety, major overdose = incredible fatigue, lol
My point was that from my readings some people find that they may do okay on that dose (Deplin) originally, but decompensate & need to drastically reduce the dose due to negative symptoms.
With respect to hydroxy- I have only used the sublinguals and I would just cut them in pieces. I started with a rapid dissolve under tongue & now tend to keep wedged between gum & side of mouth so can slowly dissolve over 1-3 hours.
I have never used drops, but I have heard of people diluting them.
