Highlights from this day
  • tga_notice — did OASIS use the same fasting conditions as the earlier work 06:45
  • cold_chain_cmdr — switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 21 months 07:58
  • provincial_pat — is the non peptide thing why orforglipron doesnt need the fasting rules 08:57
  • cold_chain_cmdr — orforglipron is a small molecule rather than a peptide, which is why the fasting conditions differ 09:17

coming back to this my weekly log on oral is noisier than my injectable log ever was, same scales same mornings

TN

the 30 minutes starts when you swallow it, and i set a timer because i cannot be trusted

coffee is not plain water. i tried it for a month and my results got worse

TT

roughly one percent gets absorbed, which is why the tablet strength looks nothing like an injectable dose

ok so i do 6am with water and eat at 7, thats been my routine for 20 months

TN

did OASIS use the same fasting conditions as the earlier work

❤️7😂15

the oral disappointed me on the mornings i couldnt manage 30 minutes fasted, which was most of them

RO

is the inconsistency people report about the drug or about how they take it

ok so how strict is the 30 minute wait before food for people here

💀8

the non peptide agents dose daily without the water ritual, thats the practical difference
the non peptide orals are the interesting part of this channel now, not oral semaglutide

CC

switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 21 months

Cited study
Oral Semaglutide 50 mg in Adults with Overweight or Obesity (OASIS 1)
The Lancet · 2023
The high-dose oral. Absorption rules matter enormously here.

i take mine at 6am, is 30 minutes really enough
my oral results were inconsistent week to week and i eventually decided it was me, not the tablet

anyone switched from injectable to oral and kept the same effect
the oral disappointed me on the mornings i couldnt manage 30 minutes fasted, which was most of them

AA

one percent is the number people quote and the spread around it is the actual story

CC

OASIS ran under the same sort of fasting conditions, thats not the variable between the two, i have it written down somewhere

CC

orforglipron is a small molecule rather than a peptide, which is why the fasting conditions differ

the fasting window is the difference between a dose and a very expensive tablet

absorption is the variable, not the molecule. same tablet, different morning, different result

i said 8 months ago that my oral results were random, they got consistent once i fixed the water

OO

how much water exactly, is it a small sip or half a glass

OO

coming back to this i keep the tablet by the kettle so i take it before i think about food

RO

tea also does not count, in case anyone was hoping, your mileage will differ

big mg small dose
