This medicinal product has a variety of administration forms - tablets, drops, sprays, but I am unfamiliar with this particular dosage abbreviation. It may perhaps mean 7 times per week, but one would have thought that would be 7 ggr per vecka.

Dosage Text: 7 tabs every second week
Can vv = varannan vecka? Scroll down to table 4 in the Kevzara Fass ref. for an example of the term used in this way.
The vv dosage is unusual, perhaps you can confirm elsewhere in your text or in other info online for this product.
It would be helpful to know the dosage text for the different formulations.

Discussion
Are the different dosages and formulations above for the same active substance or different meds entirely?
Dosage every second week is not common, I would look for alternate info on the product online to confirm, or ask the client.
