4 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
held there too

FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure

if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem

the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels
im 2 months in at 15 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
for the archive im at 1 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
did anyone hold at 0.25 longer than four weeks before going up
give it four weeks
compounded and brand felt the same to me at 5, which is one person and nothing more

i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication

not the same trial
brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel

does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
the plateau hit me at 27 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed
