What does the term "every other day" imply for treatment frequency?

The term "every other day" specifically means that treatment is administered on alternating days. This indicates that if a patient receives treatment on one day, they will not receive it the next day but will return for treatment the following day. This pattern continues in a repeating cycle, effectively meaning that treatment occurs on odd-numbered days or even-numbered days based on the schedule established.

For example, if treatment starts on a Monday, the next treatment would occur on Wednesday, then Friday, and so on. This approach allows for a balance between administering the medication or therapy frequently enough to be effective while also giving the body time to recover between treatments.
