I also think they should stay on their meds until they aren't needed any longer unless they are 'elective' type meds. Many rx drugs require tapering off even if it isn't typically indicated. Many require a much slower taper that is recommended by the manufacturer.
An important key to doing this is to learn the symptoms of taking too much of the rx drug and watch for them. For example if we were working on synthroid then we'd watch for shakiness, irriatability, racing heart, etc. if those happen then the amount of rx needs to drop.
Some drugs like acid reflux meds they can just go off and start doTerra. If you didn't know, most internists are taking their patients off them cold turkey because of 'issues'. Drugs that were previously prescribed that you had to take for life now are short term.
Drugs that require a very very slow taper are antidepressants, anti anxiety, sleep meds like Ambien.

I am meeting more people with serious health issues inwhich they take meds daily. They are not interested in stopping meds cold turkey which I agree with. Just wondering how others approach these concerns of switching over to oils totally. thanks in advance.
