Highlights from this day
  • apnoea_down_two — the glucagon arm is the mechanistic story for extra energy expenditure and its still a story to me 18:05
  • apnoea_down_two — phase 2 was still trending at the end which is why the phase 3 readout matters more than usual 18:35
  • pharmac_pen — is TRIUMPH the phase 3 programme 19:18
  • drawup_dee — i was wrong to call the heart rate a non issue last year, enough people logged it that i changed my mind 19:47
TT

triple agonist meaning GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, have i got that right
stepping in 5 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again

MM

the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting, thats just me

lost 42kg over 13 months at doses well under what the trials used

mine went up too

im at 7.5 and the appetite effect is stronger than i expected, normal
GI was about the same as tirzepatide for me, the difference was how fast it arrived

watching my heart rate

phase 2 was still trending at the end which is why the phase 3 readout matters more than usual

smaller steps here

🤝1
NP

people insist on small steps because the side effects arrive faster than on the other two

AD

blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect, n of 1 obviously

for the archive did the phase 2 plateau or was it still moving at the end
research use only is on every vial and i treat it as exactly that, nobody here is prescribing

LO

anyone reconstituting 10 vials to 4 so the steps come out smaller

DD

came off at 9 weeks because my resting rate stayed elevated and i didnt like it

DD

the honest position is this has less human evidence behind it than anything else discussed here

TRIUMPH is the phase 3 programme, thats the name to search rather than the molecule, take that with a pinch of salt

DD

DD

does the energy expenditure claim show up as anything you can feel

NP

my resting rate went up 2 bpm in the first month and came back most of the way by month 8

is there any long term safety data at all or is it phase 2 and hope

DD

how do people square the research use only framing with logging their own use

stopped for 21 months and restarted at half my old dose, the ramp was easier second time

LO

low and slow here means smaller steps than i ever used on tirzepatide, thats the received wisdom

buying this is a completely different risk conversation from the licensed compounds and that gets said too rarely

GB

for the archive did the phase 2 result actually come in higher than the tirzepatide numbers

low and slow

baseline  58
wk 2      61
wk 4      64
wk 6      67
wk 8      66
wk 10     65   (held dose from wk 7)
