You raise an interesting point, though.
If you drink all day do you need to re-take Nal? The book talks about the half-life of Nal in the body, but it doesn't talk about how long the Nal stays active in blocking the receptors. If it does, I didn't see it.
You are right and I have asked the very same. For example, I may take Nal, drink a few beer and take a nap for 4 hours. When I get back up, am I covered?
I believe the wash out for Nal is in excess of one day. I remember Eskapa talking about taking nearly two days off before appreciating the additinal receptors. I could be wrong but I do think you are covered for one day. As long as you take Nal prior to drinking to drinking on every drinking day, you should be good to go.
As the effects of the SM take place, one would expect your daily commitment to dimimish to a more managable degree.
