does switching from semaglutide need a gap or do you just start

how long before the dual thing was noticeable to you

TT

switched from 12 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it, ymmv

wk 1-4    2.5mg
wk 5-8    5.0mg
wk 9-20   7.5mg   <- stayed here
wk 21-24  10.0mg  (no extra benefit for me)
wk 25+    7.5mg   (came back down)
RT

the GIP explanation for easier nausea is plausible and i still treat it as a story not a fact

VB

Digest for the week of 2025-04-22 has been published.

SS

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

SA

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

SS

unrelated but 12 did nothing extra over 10 for me and that still holds a year later

is the 2 vial the common one or do people use 20
plateaued at 16 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific

SA

is SURMOUNT-OSA the sleep apnoea one

wk 1-4    2.5mg
wk 5-8    5.0mg
wk 9-20   7.5mg   <- stayed here
wk 21-24  10.0mg  (no extra benefit for me)
wk 25+    7.5mg   (came back down)

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

does the appetite effect feel different or just stronger

titrate slow

🙏4

at 10 my appetite went completely and i dropped back a step, eating nothing isnt a win, from memory
the GI difference held for me right up to 15, which isnt what a couple of people here found

SA

held 10 for 5 months and lost 13kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine, thats one data point

TA

did going from 1.7 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone

anyone tracked whether the GI difference held at the top doses

RT

GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect

how did people handle the 2.5 to 5 jump
the GI difference held for me right up to 15, which isnt what a couple of people here found

is there a reason to titrate slower than the four week schedule

RT

slightly off topic but restarted at 2.5 after 8 months off and the first two doses reminded me why titration exists

same plateau here

RT

changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome

RT

i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 4 months at 7.5 not needing more

RT

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

SH

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

*2ml not 2.5

MS

checked the units twice

7.5 gang

WT

i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did, your mileage will differ

SH

the sweet spot argument is really about effect per side effect, not a magic number
