how long is ok to take remedy?

i'm a little confused. How long is safe to take a remedy if i have a chronic disease?
I've read on this forum there is no way to take a remedy very long like 6 months.
for example, i'm taking rhus tox. 200c once a day, then i was told as soon as i see any improvement i have to take it 200c twice a week. My question: how long do i need to take it? a month or two? or do i need to switch to another one?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.

Remedies are given to induce the natural immune system to kick in , the cure is not in the remedy itself, this is a chemical reaction (drug effect) thinking, not homeopathy per se. If it (remedy) does not cause a reation after taking it at least twice, it is not the correct simillum and should not be taken again. However there are many people who prescribe like this , some have the desired result, but this is due to the law of averages, not due to knowing Hpathy in depth. This type of prescribing causes problems for the taker in the long term. Suppression is possible and the effects are long term and difficult to remove.
