my Medutest result on a GL Biochem vial came in at 97.4 which is why i keep buying from them

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

GIP plus GLP-1

same plateau here

start low anyway

titrate slow

how long before the dual thing was noticeable to you

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

while im here the 10 vial in 2ml gives 5mg/ml which puts 2.5 on 20 units, nice round numbers

SURMOUNT is weight

the two compounds arent interchangeable week for week even if the effect ends up similar

update on the earlier thing 5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me

FT

update on the earlier thing anyone tracked whether the GI difference held at the top doses

ST

i went to 15 and came back to 10, more suppression wasnt more useful for me

II

im at 12 and thinking about 0.5, did anyone gain anything from that step

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

[edited]

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

the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week 31

whats the plateau pattern here, same as semaglutide or different

NA

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

SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier

MS

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

VB

Inter-lab diff for lot F-1330: 98.6% vs 99.2%. Within expected range.

DO

i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 17 months at 7.5 not needing more

did going from 2.4 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
