Maybe you are like some of us that cannot take drugs continuously every day. You can take it once every other day, once every three days, whatever, never allowing the genes to catch on to what you are doing. Take the drug every day and they can figure it out pretty fast, what, a week at the most, and then send out their instructions to undo what the drug is trying to do. Keep the genetic instruction guys confused. As soon as they figure out what you are doing by taking a drug regularly, they have all kinds of ways to undo it.

For example. Let's say the genes have instructions for a certain amount of serotonin at the synapse. You then start lexapro. Within a week the genes are sending out warning flags to everybody....too much serotonin, not in our instructions, you guys who turn tryptophan into serotonin STOP. You guys in the MAO department need to step up your pace and chew up all the serotonin because for some strange reason the reuptake guys are blocked and we got a flood of serotonin here.

Keep the genes on the run. Which means you can't take a drug more than 2 or 3 days in row. You might have to switch back and forth between several different meds you find helpful so as to keep the genes in total confusion so they don't mess things up.

I know that sounds bizarre. But hey, whatever you gotta do, right? It works for me and other people.

Someone else might instead say you gotta increase the dose more and more until you reach a point where the good effect stays, which could be double or triple the maximum dose normally prescribed. Again, whatever you gotta do. I remember for example reading about a lady with Lyme disease who had intermittent response to Lexapro but didn't get a sustained response until the dose hit 60mg. That is way above the usual maximum dose.

If someone had an answer to your question they could make millions.
