I use the Indonesian (Pasak Bumi) tongkat ali 1:200 extract, 300 mg capsules. They come 100 to a bottle for about $60 mail order if you find the right discount retailer. Manufacturer is UD Sumatra Pasak Bumi. I take one a day, along with some maca capsules (either root powder or 6:1 concentrate). This combo has worked very well for me, so I haven't tried taking more than one tongkat ali capsule a day, although taking two or even four seems to be a common dosage.

I also tried the 1:50 extract from the same company, I like the 1:200 more (less pills to take).

You are supposed to cycle tongkat, so two weeks on, one week off kind of thing, to maintain effectiveness (and also give your body a rest). Often I find the best response when starting or stopping it - seems like the change is more stimulating than a steady state.
