did the phase 2 result actually come in higher than the tirzepatide numbers

- calgary_cold — genuine question triple agonist meaning GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, have i got that right 19:07
- escalation_anxiety — the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting 19:31
- two_eight_c — i was wrong to call the heart rate a non issue last year, enough people logged it that i changed my mind 20:30
low and slow
lost 15kg over 22 months at doses well under what the trials used
is the phase 2 dosing anywhere near what people here run
the glucagon arm is the mechanistic story for extra energy expenditure and its still a story to me
triple agonist yeah
blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect
phase 2 was still trending at the end which is why the phase 3 readout matters more than usual
held at 7.5 for 14 months and it never plateaued for me, which i cant explain
cant feel it honestly
phase 2 only
whats the half life like, is it weekly the same way
TRIUMPH is phase 3
glucagon is the new bit
for the archive research use only is on every vial and i treat it as exactly that, nobody here is prescribing
why does everyone insist on smaller steps here than on the other two
people insist on small steps because the side effects arrive faster than on the other two
i went up too fast, got a fortnight of nothing but nausea, and dropped back two steps
watching my heart rate
reconstituted the 2 vial to 2.5mg/ml specifically so i could take 2.5 without measuring crumbs
how long before people saw the first change at 5
*Medutest not the other one
my resting heart rate is up about 8 bpm, did that settle for anyone
genuine question triple agonist meaning GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, have i got that right
the honest position is this has less human evidence behind it than anything else discussed here
stepping in 0.25 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again
back after 26 months, has anything actually been published since
logging rhr daily
no long term data
the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting
baseline 58
wk 2 61
wk 4 64
wk 6 67
wk 8 66
wk 10 65 (held dose from wk 7)stopped for 7 months and restarted at half my old dose, the ramp was easier second time
there is no long term safety data, phase 2 and an ongoing phase 3 programme is what exists
TRIUMPH is the phase 3 programme, thats the name to search rather than the molecule
does the glucagon arm explain the heart rate or is that unrelated
i said 5 months ago that my heart rate had settled and it has stayed settled since
i was wrong to call the heart rate a non issue last year, enough people logged it that i changed my mind
is TRIUMPH the phase 3 programme
research use only
