Thursday26 messages7 participantstimes are UTC
Highlights from this day
  • zoya_zeros — i hold for two months minimum before i decide a dose has stopped doing anything 22:15
  • dana_titrates — genuine question with a roughly seven day half-life you are near steady state after about five weeks at a dose 22:26
  • VialBot — Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2601. Nothing logged either way. 23:05
  • zoya_zeros — i went from 15 to 0.25 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite 23:09
  • zoya_zeros — after a gap of more than about three weeks i restart one rung lower. thats my own rule, not advice 23:33

split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats all, someone check my working

i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it

if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise

SO

i went to the top of the ladder, felt no better than two rungs down, and came back. that is data for me and nobody else

you do not have to escalate at all. that is a real option that gets forgotten

whats your rule for when a side effect means hold rather than push

i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat, still working it out

*week 22 not week 4

plateau versus set point is not answerable in under six months of data

genuine question with a roughly seven day half-life you are near steady state after about five weeks at a dose

the trials escalated on a fixed schedule because a trial has to. you are not a trial

i drifted from sunday to wednesday over a year and only noticed when i checked the log

dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it
the ladder in the trials is a starting point, not a schedule you owe anyone

if the current dose is still working, going up is spending headroom you might want later, i could be wrong

Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2601. Nothing logged either way.

thats normal

i went from 15 to 0.25 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite

if it "stopped working after four days" that is almost never pharmacokinetics
