Yeah, absolute numbers matter more than the press release.

Yeah, the injection-site soreness hit on day 13 for me too, not day 1.

testing the vendor claim versus testing your actual vial are two different posts

do not editorialise in the title, put the number in the title and the opinion in the body

comment on three years of SURMOUNT threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/trialwatch · 488 points · 1 year ago
This is correct. Discontinuation arms show the regain reality.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about STEP until somebody posts a number in c/trialwatch · 6 points · 2 years ago
Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 22–5.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 23 weeks to accept.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

ask your actual doctor, not us
comment on basics — my 24-week log, condensed into one table in c/newbiequestions · 10 points · 2 years ago
no question too basic, read the wiki first, then ask anyway

STEP, SURMOUNT, SURPASS, SELECT, FLOW, TRIUMPH — read the appendix
comment on [Lab] 22th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/newbiequestions · 45 points · 2 years ago
The beginner question took me three weeks to understand. Wiki explained it eventually.
comment on stalled for 2 weeks at 7.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/labresults · 68 points · 2 years ago
reship and retest is the honest way to handle a low result
comment on week one: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/newbiequestions · 1 points · 2 years ago
is this normal week 8 — yes, probably
