24-hour dosage regime
As Helena says, nychthemeron. The 5X looks like a drug to be taken 5 times in that 24-hour period. What the O-2 might be (even as a typo) baffles me.

Nictémero
The English translation is Nychthemeron, but I don't know what 5XO-2 could refer to.
Nychthemeron /nɪkˈθɛmərɒn/, occasionally nycthemeron or nuchthemeron (Greek νυχθήμερον from the words nykt- "night", and hemera "day, daytime") is a period of 24 consecutive hours. It is sometimes used, especially in technical literature, to avoid the ambiguity inherent in the term day.
It is the period of time that a calendar normally labels with a date.

"circling the drain" is an amusing phrase, when it's not somebody one knows.
