what would you tell week-1 you about discontinuation

Results Well Actually ×6 Cold Box ×2

Genuinely asking, not being difficult.

Everyone in c/progresspics repeats that discontinuation is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 8 threads of people agreeing with each other.

Is there a paper? Is there a measurement? Or is this one of those things that is true because it has been repeated since 2023?

I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source.

Has anyone actually got this in writing, or is it forum lore at this point?

Disagree on that part. 99.0% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

This is correct. Discontinuation data is real.

About c/tapering

Stopping on purpose: dose reduction versus interval stretching, what the discontinuation arms of STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 actually showed about regain, appetite return timelines, and the people who came off, regained, and went back on without treating it as a failure.
