Synergistic Protocol

Meaning

A synergistic protocol describes a therapeutic or wellness regimen where the combined clinical effect of two or more distinct interventions is demonstrably greater than the simple sum of their individual effects. This non-additive interaction, known as synergy, is a desirable outcome in clinical practice, aiming to maximize therapeutic benefit or minimize required dosing of individual agents, thereby potentially reducing side effects. Designing a synergistic protocol requires a deep, mechanistic understanding of the complementary actions of each component on the underlying pathophysiology.
