Highlights from this day
- igf_one_ivy — €185 for a 40 vial is roughly what ive paid for the last year 16:48
- surpass_two — for the archive SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up 16:54
- surpass_two — whats the top licensed dose, 15 or does it go higher 16:56
- gip_glp_gil — the GI difference held for me right up to 15, which isnt what a couple of people here found 18:42
- u100_pat — at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that 20:06
licensed top is 15 weekly, past that is not a licensed dose and nobody here can tell you what it does
SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
went back to semaglutide after 18 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI, ask me again in a month
for the archive SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up
| Trial schedule | What most people here do | |
|---|---|---|
| Step interval | 4 weeks, fixed | 4-12 weeks, on symptoms |
| Holding | protocol deviation | normal and expected |
| Top dose | reached by design | often never reached |
| Coming down | not studied | common at maintenance |
whats the top licensed dose, 15 or does it go higher

at 2 my appetite is gone entirely, did anyone go down rather than up
at 2.5 my appetite went completely and i dropped back a step, eating nothing isnt a win
changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome
did anyone go past 15 and was there any point to it
did going from 7.5 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
the 15 vial in 3ml gives 4mg/ml which puts 5 on 15 units, nice round numbers, thats just me
5 did nothing
my Medutest result on a FGP vial came in at 98.1 which is why i keep buying from them
unrelated but held 10 for 4 months and lost 35kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine
same plateau here
i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 19 months at 7.5 not needing more
switched from 1 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it
switched last year
there is no clean conversion between the two, anyone giving you a ratio is guessing
GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect
Verification log updated: WWB — evidence added, status unchanged.
the GI difference held for me right up to 15, which isnt what a couple of people here found

plateaued at 11 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific
genuine question the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier
coming off semaglutide, is there a conversion or do i restart at 2.5
easier gi for me
no gap when i switched, took the last semaglutide dose and started this a week later

the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week 25
i went to 15 and came back to 10, more suppression wasnt more useful for me
😂1🤝3
folklore probably
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did
at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that
