Thanks! Regarding the last solution... I suppose is a case of "monkey patching" numbers (so that * can be used in that way)? As per the thread going on the groovy users mailing list, I am a bit concerned about monkey patching (which I already use a lot).

BTW: how about takeAt 0.h, 2 * CQ ? cheers Dierk cool.
one further option would be to replace the lines

regimen.take drug: CQ, qty: 2, at: 0.h

with

take drug: CQ, qty: 2, at: 0.h

by either wrapping them in

regimen.with {
take drug: CQ, qty: 2, at: 0.h
…
}

or by using a MethodClosure as an alias

def take = regimen.&take
take drug: CQ, qty: 2, at: 0.h
…

BTW: how about
takeAt 0.h, 2 * CQ
?

cheers
