Precision Dosing Chronometry is the scientifically informed practice of administering a specific, individualized dose of a therapeutic agent or supplement at the optimal time of day or night to maximize its efficacy and minimize side effects. This method explicitly accounts for the body’s natural circadian rhythms and the temporal fluctuations in hormone levels, receptor sensitivity, and metabolic enzyme activity. It is a cornerstone of chronopharmacology applied to hormonal health.
Origin
This concept is a direct application of chronobiology and chronopharmacology, disciplines that study the effect of biological rhythms on drug action. The “Precision Dosing” component highlights the shift from generalized dosing schedules to highly individualized, data-driven therapeutic timing. This evolution in clinical practice recognizes the temporal nature of human biology.
Mechanism
The mechanism exploits the predictable 24-hour rhythms of the endocrine system and liver metabolism. For example, administering certain hormones or metabolites when their endogenous levels are naturally highest or lowest can amplify or normalize a physiological effect. By aligning the intervention with the body’s intrinsic temporal biology, the protocol ensures maximal therapeutic benefit and improves overall treatment tolerance.
