No, you can't safely: These are serious medications and it is generally not safe to start and stop them for convenience. It is also not safe to drink while on it - If this is for 3/7 or 3/8, talk to the Dr. Don't just remove the patch. Even if it was OK this time, the future may not be. Be careful w/ yourself - that's part of what you need for recovery!
