my tabs were 640mg, 2 to be taken 3x a day. (6x640 = 3840mg).
Your tablet package should tell you how many you should take.
I doubled my dose plus was having raspberry leaf tea as well, but this was because I was already 40 weeks pg and was trying (unsuccessfully) to bring on labour. This >double dose didn't cause me any problems for the 2 weeks I was taking it but I did only have a 1/2 hour stage 2 labour, so I think it helped!!
I believe there are no real problems with exceeding the stated dose, other than a minor risk of bringing on early labour, so you might want to stick to the recommended dose until you are a bit further on.
