I think it depends on the treatment, and some drugs no longer mess with your system when you stop. But I'm no expert.

Just like Fred, in all the years that I have used it I have never found any influence of it on my immune system.
Yes I think if we get a flu or cold worse than those close to us or get them more often then maybe we should think about it, but why stop if you have never had a problem.

Yes I would stop my treatment if I was was midway in a flu or cold and my shot was due, but even then I would only delay a week.
