[Discussion] we are measuring Australia at the wrong time and calling it noise

compounding. That is the whole post, but I will justify it.

Everything else people worry about in c/glp1uk is downstream of it. Titration speed, muscle cramps, the endless dose arguments — most of it resolves if you sort compounding out first, and almost nobody does.

I say this having got it wrong for 8 months. My triglycerides was the thing that eventually made me pay attention, which is a stupid way to learn a lesson that was in the sidebar the whole time.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.

unfunded-means-full-price is the NZ reality

unfunded-means-full-price is the NZ reality

Disagree on that part. 95.1% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.

Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.

This is correct. PBS listings matter.

u/gustav_solberg12 points·8 months ago

Not to be pedantic but shortage and Australia are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.

u/ffmi_watcherOP6 points·8 months ago

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

What is the PBS status?

u/controversial_only21 points·8 months ago

What is the PBS status?

Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

Stalled for 4 weeks, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 94.

AU or NZ?
