I think this is a viable option for treatment resistant cases. Obviously, the need for med "cycling" in a stable patient is not necessary.
But yes, I strongly agree there is something to be said for multiple meds with intermittent dosing.
I'm not comparing this to the standard "augmenting" practice, but rather a unorthodox med delivery system.
The problem with this method lies with the patients ability to properly self diagnose and administration of the cocktail.
For myself, some of my finest moments are captured when "switching from one to another. I usually don't taper so those 3, 4 or 5 days of breakthrough provide enough evidence to support your theory of med cycling.
