Seems like a bang-up business model, along with all sorts of other regular-meetings-with-the-professional therapies. Biologics on the pharm side, or just plain old therapy on the practitioner side.

Industry has plenty of practice with "every month or two" doses, so I wouldn't be so cynical in the attempts to remove the side effects. "Can you do it without getting high" is something that would greatly expand the audience and give people a better experience.
