week 91 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me

Pricingbranch of 8 comments

Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 12.5mg, week 39, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — state board — and tracked it for 15 weeks. Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So…

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

503B compounding is different from 503A, different rules, different legality

API source questions are on-topic and compounders dodging them is newsworthy

About c/compounding

Compounded GLP-1s as a supply route: the 503A/503B distinction, the shortage-list mechanics that made compounding legal and then didn't, state board rules, telehealth prescriber models, and what a compounding pharmacy will and will not tell you about its API source.

c/compounding rules
  1. Regulatory claims need a citation to the actual rule, notice or docket.
  2. No pharmacy referral codes. Naming a pharmacy is fine; recruiting for it is not.
  3. API source questions are on-topic and pharmacies dodging them is newsworthy.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.

Before you read on

Several compounds discussed on GLP Research Hub are sold for research use only and are not approved for human use anywhere. Nothing here is medical advice and none of it is written by your clinician. If a post reads like an instruction, treat it as a description of what one stranger did.
