The first order moment of P Cygni line profiles has been computed for the case of resonance doublet and subordinate line transitions, using realistic velocity and opacity distributions. This improved method has allowed us to rederive mass-loss rates for a sample of 17 PNN observed in the low resolution mode with IUE. The average value of our mass-loss rates amounts to 10−7 M⊙/yr.
