- egfr_ed — ok so my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem 21:45
- no_appetite_nia — unrelated but did anybody find a difference between BCH and pharmacy at the same 2.4 22:55
- no_appetite_nia — half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose, not advice obviously 22:59
*Janoshik not the other one
coming back to this the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip
not the same trial
STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it, ymmv
if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule

my 20 vial in 2ml gives 10mg/ml so 1.7 lands on 20 units, thats why i picked that volume
i stayed on 1.7 for 20 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it
same dose day
for the archive is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
went too fast once
restarted after 6 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time
im 1 months in at 10 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
SELECT wasnt weight

STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
mine faded too
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping
2.4 is the ceiling
unrelated but did anybody find a difference between BCH and pharmacy at the same 2.4
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
is the plateau at 5 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong
changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose, not advice obviously
