the argument for splitting is a flatter curve. the argument against is you have doubled your injections for a guess
after a gap of more than about three weeks i restart one rung lower. thats my own rule, not advice
while im here i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it, thats one data point
*that should say weekly
if i hold at 12 indefinitely am i losing anything
the people who do best here are almost always the ones going slowest, ask me again in a month
stepping back down on purpose is a completely reasonable move and this channel should say so more often, ill dig out the number
anyone tracked whether a smaller more frequent dose changed their side effects
n of 1
my rule: if a side effect is still there at day five, i hold. if it clears by day three, i step
coming down from 2.4 to 15, how bad is the appetite rebound
do you escalate on the calendar or on how you feel
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful
i have been at 2.4 for 5 months and honestly i have stopped wanting to move
dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it
is there a trial anywhere that studied twice weekly, or is it all anecdote
