same plateau here
#tirzepatide 2025-02-25
- apob_over_ldl — i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did 13:18
- mid_week_mo — update on the earlier thing at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that 15:05
- mid_week_mo — $94 for a 5 vial is roughly what ive paid for the last year 15:07
anyone stopped at 10 and stayed there for months
SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
anyone got a 5 recon they like for the 10 vials
[edited]whats the plateau pattern here, same as semaglutide or different
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did
| 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 |
is 7.5 really the sweet spot or is that just channel folklore
switched last year
i went to 15 and came back to 10, more suppression wasnt more useful for me
does the GIP arm actually explain the easier nausea or is that hand waving
changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome
sorry to jump in no gap when i switched, took the last semaglutide dose and started this a week later
update on the earlier thing at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that
$94 for a 5 vial is roughly what ive paid for the last year
start low anyway
the sweet spot argument is really about effect per side effect, not a magic number
the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier, not advice obviously
how many weeks at 7.5 before you knew it was enough
the GI difference held for me right up to 15, which isnt what a couple of people here found
went back to semaglutide after 20 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI
SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up
*Medutest not the other one
15 is the top
