- seven_five_sweet — update from 21 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly 18:00
- van_isle_vial — i log dose, day, weight and one line about how the week felt. thats enough to make decisions on 18:14
- vienna_vial — if the current dose is still working, going up is spending headroom you might want later 18:45
held for months
my titration ladder took 25 months to climb and i would do it slower again
update from 21 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful
i log dose, day, weight and one line about how the week felt. thats enough to make decisions on
if the current dose is still working, going up is spending headroom you might want later
end of week thing
if i hold at 5 indefinitely am i losing anything
after a gap of more than about three weeks i restart one rung lower. thats my own rule, not advice
steady state is 5 weeks
a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored
how long did you hold at 2.5 before you moved up
two weeks is nothing
thats noise
came down, no regrets
do you tell your prescriber you held or do you just hold
