moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
| Trial schedule | What most people here do | |
|---|---|---|
| Step interval | 4 weeks, fixed | 4-12 weeks, on symptoms |
| Holding | protocol deviation | normal and expected |
| Top dose | reached by design | often never reached |
| Coming down | not studied | common at maintenance |
plateaus move
give it four weeks
[edited]unrelated but i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
slower worked better
quick one lost about 24kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me
if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
vials not pens here
my Janoshik report on the SGN vial came back 99.2 against a certificate saying 98.6
the appetite effect faded for me around 8 months and going up fixed it for a while
im 22 months in at 5 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure
the appetite effect faded for me around 9 months and going up fixed it for a while
did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed
im at 0.25 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
£240 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
anyone gone from 7.5 straight to 12 or is that too big a jump
follow up does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
held there too
how long till steady state, ive read the half life is about a week
