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

update from 21 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly
[edited]you do not have to escalate at all. that is a real option that gets forgotten
| 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 |
is there a trial anywhere that studied twice weekly, or is it all anecdote
dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it
coming back to this the ladder in the trials is a starting point, not a schedule you owe anyone, for what its worth

what does the room think about jumping a rung to catch up
after a gap of more than about three weeks i restart one rung lower. thats my own rule, not advice
n of 1
pick a day and stick to it
a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored
i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it

appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing
