[Question] metformin alongside — keep it or drop it

Question

I have had 12 orders now and I keep a table, so here is the honest summary rather than a vibe.

Material has been consistent. Communication has not. Shipping has varied by about 26 days on nominally the same lane, which matters more in summer than in February.

The independent number came back 93.7% against a claimed 94.2%, which I read as agreement rather than a discrepancy — inter-lab variance on this assay is a point or two either way and treating one lab as ground truth is how people end up in pointless arguments with vendors.

Batch number is in the comments. Ask if you want the method.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

This is correct. Hypo risk is real.

A1c, CGM, stacking with metformin

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

I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.

About c/t2dglp1

Type 2 diabetes as the original indication: A1c trajectories, CGM traces, hypoglycaemia risk when stacked with sulfonylureas or insulin, metformin combinations, and why the weight-loss conversation sometimes drowns out the glycaemic one.
