brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel

i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication

does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure

five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt

held at 0.25 and lost 42lb over 18 months, slower than the trials and fine by me, thats just me

my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem, i think

changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels

compounded and brand felt the same to me at 2.4, which is one person and nothing more

is the plateau at 24 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong

i stayed on 1.7 for 1 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it

follow up licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose, we shall see

thats STEP 1

coming back to this back after 23 months off, do i restart at 0.25 or somewhere higher

i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that

genuine question did anybody find a difference between GL Biochem and pharmacy at the same 2.5

held there too

vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong

whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers

Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2418. Nothing logged either way.

how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7

quick one half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose

same dose day

if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
