My mom was drinking diluted hydrogen peroxide daily for a while because some quack on YouTube claimed it prevents/cures cancer.
You should have her see a doctor. That stuff is not for drinking. Hell, the labels specifically tell you that.
It's probably too risky at this point. She could start foaming at the mouth any minute now and get an incorrect diagnosis of rabies.
If you tell her to wait a few years before drinking, the concentration will naturally go down as time passes. The longer you let this chemical sit in room temperature, the more oxygen and water you’ll have.
