went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step

- hard_stop_hal — FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure 18:06
- VialBot — Verification log updated: QSC — evidence added, status unchanged. 18:23
- nhs_pathway_nell — is 2.4 the top or do people go past it lost about 17kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me 18:24
- hard_stop_hal — did anybody find a difference between JEEP and pharmacy at the same 12 19:06
- nhs_pathway_nell — is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4 vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong 19:28

anyone compared their 4 vial dosing against the pen increments
if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
ok so steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing
4 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
Verification log updated: QSC — evidence added, status unchanged.

slightly off topic but anyone gone from 2 straight to 1 or is that too big a jump
is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong
thats STEP 1
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
*week 16 not week 9
