There are two articles about this: Empiric therapy and Empirical treatment. If these are truly different, they should be distinguished from one another. Otherwise, these two articles should be combined.

Interesting—I just recently combined the articles, and explained the two
senses that each of the
synonymous terms (empiric/empirical + therapy/treatment = 4 possible synonyms) can point to, before coming to this talk page and reading this (recent) comment. In short, the comment above was right on target: for any such instance, either way, we should fix it—(1) if it's a
content fork, defork it, or (2) if it's not forking because a true difference exists, then clarify the differentiation in the ledes. The answer in this instance is that there are two senses, but trying to imagine that each of them can be exclusively assigned to one of the morphemic/lexemic variants is pretending or misapprehending. So both page names now lead to one article, and the two senses are duly explained there.
