comment on unpopular opinion: gallbladder is massively overrated in c/sideeffects · 25 points · 5 months ago
IANAD and neither is anyone upvoting this
comment on [PSA] titration is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/semaglutide · 28 points · 5 months ago
okay but what dose of sema are you on
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on [Question] Ireland — has anyone got a straight answer on weekly update in c/dosinglogs · 1 points · 6 months ago
the people still updating at week 74 are the reward

The reflux passes. I kept a log and the timeline was the only useful thing. 2 weeks and it was basically gone.
comment on 12 months in and heart rate is still the thing I get wrong in c/sideeffects · 34 points · 7 months ago
comment on stalled for 16 weeks at 0.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/glp1science · 10 points · 7 months ago
The half-life is 13 hours, which means week 13 is genuinely still ramp-up. Week 40 is steady state.

comment on weekly dosing is the most under-discussed thing in c/labresults in c/semaglutide · 96 points · 8 months ago
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
comment on telehealth — my 11-week log, condensed into one table in c/compounding · 1 points · 9 months ago
the the UK situation is different from the US, different regulations
comment on three years of sulphur burps threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/sideeffects · 354 points · 10 months ago
Crossposting this to c/vendorvetting because the people who need it are not reading this community.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about mechanism until somebody posts a number in c/glp1science · 1 points · 10 months ago
This is correct. Rodent data is investigational, not predictive.
comment on the 503A thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/compounding · 93 points · 11 months ago
comment on [Meta] the reflux rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/sideeffects · 45 points · 11 months ago
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize

503B compounding is different from 503A, different rules, different legality
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #17 — Germany, 9 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/glp1science · 295 points · 1 year ago
The incretin literature is interesting but rodent models do not scale linearly to human dosing.
