At first 6 oz. almost killed me, at least it felt like that, and therefore i took a long break, about 2 months.
Now i do 20 oz. a day 4 days in a row once a month without problems, only feeling a bit light in my head.
16 oz. is said to be needed to reach the liver, perhaps dilution with distilled water would be fine, but taking less is not the idea.
I adjusted the quantity to my body-seize ( content exclusive of fat and muscles, in fact probably mostly the seize of your digestive organs should count ), from a practical approach working with the body-height seems the way to go.
As Anthony writes likely mainly for north americans that have an average height of 1.69 m ( let's not mention their ever increasing average weight ... ) or 5.55 feet ( 5-11/20 ), and mine is 1.80 m, i calculated the for me recommendable quantity as  ( 1.8 x 1.8 x 1.8 / 1.69 x 1.69 x 1.69 ) x 16 oz. = 1.208  x 16 oz. = 19.3 oz.
I start the day with 0.5 liter or 2 cups of water to rinse out the stomach, then wait at least 30 minutes, then take the celery juice and then wait 1 hour before taking breakfast.
Although i am hooked to raw diary, i will not have that from one day before till one day after drinking the celery-juice, as milkproducts ( and eggs ) are supposed to undo the benefits to a large extent.
The darker green the celery and the more leaves, the stronger the effect, but you may want to avoid that in the beginning.
The celery found on farmer's markets is in general much more beneficial than that sold in supermarkets of course.

Although you should ask Anthony what to do in your situation ( but that will not be easy, there is no address given to write to ), extending the periods of rest, like taking the proper quantity once a month or so, instead of 4 oz. every 4 days, appears to be a good idea, at least worth trying out.
Right now something does not seem quite right, if you feel harmed, i'd say take it less frequently, do not keep the volume reduced forever, as the celery is to reach its most important destination : the liver.
