right so the trials escalated on a fixed schedule because a trial has to. you are not a trial

Highlights from this day
- VialBot — Assay note: BCH lot SG-1177 reported at 99.2% of label content. 17:01
- quill_questions — split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats all 17:34
- slow.taper — update from 25 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats… 17:39
- slow.taper — i went to the top of the ladder, felt no better than two rungs down, and came back. that is data for me and nobody else 18:08

my titration ladder took 13 months to climb and i would do it slower again
if you are asking whether to go up, the fact you are asking usually means not yet
[edited]ok so i have been at 5 for 14 months and honestly i have stopped wanting to move
i would hold
| Trial schedule | What most people here do | |
|---|---|---|
| Step interval | 4 weeks, fixed | 4-12 weeks, on symptoms |
| Holding | protocol deviation | normal and expected |
| Top dose | reached by design | often never reached |
| Coming down | not studied | common at maintenance |
Reminder set. I will post here in 2 days.
i drifted from sunday to wednesday over a year and only noticed when i checked the log

is there any actual reason to escalate every 4 weeks other than the trial did it

anyone here split their weekly into two and would they do it again
held for months
the people who do best here are almost always the ones going slowest, ymmv
i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat, i think
dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it, happy to be corrected
if i took it 5 days late do i shift the schedule or go back to the old day
[edited]end of week thing
how long did you hold at 2.5 before you moved up
Recon calculator: 20mg in 1.5ml = 2mg/ml.

half life is a week
thats noise

how do you tell a plateau from just being at your set point
plateau versus set point is not answerable in under six months of data, take that with a pinch of salt
thats normal
is it normal for appetite to come back at the end of the week
