if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip

Reminder for a1c_lag: dose day is today. Set 7 days ago.

held at 7.5 and lost 66lb over 3 months, slower than the trials and fine by me

does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life

coming back to this the appetite effect faded for me around 9 months and going up fixed it for a while, thats just me

RT

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

TT

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

STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers

does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four

OW

does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one

wk 1-4    0.25mg
wk 5-10   0.50mg   (held 2 extra weeks)
wk 11-14  1.00mg
wk 15-26  1.70mg   (held, long)
wk 27+    2.40mg

the plateau hit me at 10 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change

OW

did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed

the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing

SN

STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it
