Not a good idea: It almost sounds like you're planning to miss several days of it. What is your rationale for doing this? Are you going to be using drugs or drinking during that time? It is simply not a good idea because there's always the risk that your original condition could worsen if you do not take the medication as directed. Please take it as prescribed and be safe. Enjoy your holiday season. Best wishes.

Relapse, for 1 thing: For one thing, your symptoms could relapse. Also you could experience discomfort such as flu-like symptoms of aching and fatigue, anxiety, dizziness, electric-like sensations, headache, nausea, etc. Hopefully if you're thinking of changing your dose, you'll speak with your doctor first. http://tinyurl.com/d54xbkl.
