Aloha Everyone,
Drug
Chronotherapy is tunes to body's rhythm regarding when to take your daily
medications to get maximum effect with the lowest risk of unpleasant side
effects.
Michael
Smolensky, adjunct professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Texas ,
Austin , states,
"The body doesn’t respond to medications in the same way at different
times of the day." "Some drugs
are not as effective or as well tolerated if they're taken at the wrong
biological time. It's not the they're
not effective at all, but they're certainly much less effective."
Successful
treatment of diseases may depend on the time of day or month that a medicine is
taken or surgery performed. Asthma and arthritis pain are examples of
conditions now being treated by the clock or calendar.

CAUTION:
Please consult your doctors or pharmacist before changing the timing of
your drugs.
Namaste -- Cathi
