Do you routinely use sweat tests if you are going to titrate a CF patient onto a lower dose of ETI for any reason (allergy, mental health, etc) to assess the severity of their response to the lower dose?

No, we don't use it routinely. Sweat test can be a good biomarker of response and has been used in research. I do not believe adjusted dose has been looked upon for any response in clinical practice.
