Highlights from this day
  • food_noise_off — how did people handle the 2.5 to 5 jump 15:01
  • vial_ledger — 40 units of a 4 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time 15:05
  • vial_ledger — the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier 16:40
  • vial_ledger — went back to semaglutide after 18 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI 17:28

if youre coming off semaglutide the honest answer is start low and find out, theres no table

BS

my Medutest result on a MKM vial came in at 96.8 which is why i keep buying from them

NT

plateaued at 19 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific

NT

the sweet spot thing is survivorship, the people it worked for stayed and said so

SURMOUNT is weight

BS

the 15 vial in 2ml gives 10mg/ml which puts 5 on 50 units, nice round numbers

how many weeks at 7.5 before you knew it was enough

VL

does the GIP arm actually explain the easier nausea or is that hand waving

LM

there is no clean conversion between the two, anyone giving you a ratio is guessing

checked the units twice

coming off semaglutide, is there a conversion or do i restart at 2.5

SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up

quick one is the 30 vial the common one or do people use 20

5 did nothing

no gap when i switched, took the last semaglutide dose and started this a week later

FN

switched from 2.4 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it

i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did

VL

40 units of a 4 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time

FN

changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome
i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 23 months at 7.5 not needing more

does the appetite effect feel different or just stronger

QH

restarted at 2.5 after 23 months off and the first two doses reminded me why titration exists

VL

the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier

VL

at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that

QH

unrelated but the trials titrated every four weeks to a target, most people here stop at whatever works

£240 for a 30 vial is roughly what ive paid for the last year
the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week 34

licensed top is 15 weekly, past that is not a licensed dose and nobody here can tell you what it does

went back to semaglutide after 18 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI
