the trials titrated every four weeks to a target, most people here stop at whatever works

Highlights from this day
- food_noise_off — at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that, not advice obviously 19:32
- gip_glp_gil — went back to semaglutide after 4 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI 19:36
- gip_glp_gil — my Medutest result on a JEEP vial came in at 99 which is why i keep buying from them, we shall see 19:54
- gip_glp_gil — 40 units of a 8 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time 20:58
15 is the top
does the GIP arm actually explain the easier nausea or is that hand waving
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did
while im here did going from 1 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
licensed top is 15 weekly, past that is not a licensed dose and nobody here can tell you what it does
*week 27 not week 7
folklore probably

10 was enough
GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect
SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
easier gi for me
whats the plateau pattern here, same as semaglutide or different
at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that, not advice obviously

the sweet spot thing is survivorship, the people it worked for stayed and said so
went back to semaglutide after 4 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI

does switching from semaglutide need a gap or do you just start
anyone tracked whether the GI difference held at the top doses
5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me
titrate slow
the sweet spot argument is really about effect per side effect, not a magic number
for the archive the 15 vial in 5ml gives 5mg/ml which puts 10 on 40 units, nice round numbers
my Medutest result on a JEEP vial came in at 99 which is why i keep buying from them, we shall see

is there a reason to titrate slower than the four week schedule
dual agonist, GIP as well as GLP-1, thats the whole difference in one line
there is no clean conversion between the two, anyone giving you a ratio is guessing, n of 1 obviously
the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier
ok so restarted at 2.5 after 21 months off and the first two doses reminded me why titration exists
40 units of a 8 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time
