    The pharmacist needs to see it to be really sure...
    USUALLY the T with 2 dots means 'one' - one tablet or pill.
    Gm MIGHT stand for gram, and one gram is the standard dose for that drug.
    But PLEASE ask the pharmacist. It's good to be informed but not to get such risky answers on the net.

    That is actually not a T, but a 1, below the dot a line, then a 1 under the line.

    1
    _
    1 gm

    In medical terms.

    Meaning, 1 gram
