comment on week 71 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/reconstitution · 55 points · 1 months ago
bacteriostatic and sterile water are not interchangeable, do not use them that way
comment on someone explain LC-MS to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/hplc · 8 points · 1 months ago
Yeah, the chromatogram profile matters more than the headline number.
comment on 2 months in and mg/mL is still the thing I get wrong in c/reconstitution · 121 points · 1 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 99.0. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on why does nobody talk about Ozempic in c/semaglutide · 2 points · 2 months ago
Ozempic versus Wegovy versus research grade is the wrong argument, they are literally the same molecule
comment on week 36 check-in — 11kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, one thing confusing me in c/scamalerts · 2 points · 2 months ago
no doxxing, company registration is fine, individuals are not
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about fatigue in c/sideeffects · 13 points · 2 months ago
Disagree.
Disagree on that part. 95.1% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about fatigue in c/sideeffects · -38 points · 2 months ago
early fullness at 15mg is different from 1.7mg
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for first time posts in c/newbiequestions · 26 points · 2 months ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on cloned site vs fake COA — genuinely asking which matters more in c/scamalerts · 9 points · 2 months ago
sock puppet accounts ask the same leading questions
comment on [Lab] 19th independent test on TFC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/semaglutide · 22 points · 2 months ago
This matches my experience almost exactly on the Ozempic pens. The titration is the whole point.
comment on genuine question about incretin that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/glp1science · 115 points · 2 months ago
Where does the incretin data actually come from?
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about discontinuation in c/tapering · 35 points · 2 months ago
Has anyone actually got this in writing, or is it forum lore at this point?
comment on [Question] DEXA — what am I missing here in c/glp1muscle · 0 points · 2 months ago
Has anyone actually got this in writing, or is it forum lore at this point?
comment on week 51 check-in — 26kg down, fatigue manageable, one thing confusing me in c/semaglutide · 79 points · 2 months ago
week 34 and i am still not at maintenance, do not rush the ladder
comment on help me understand incretin, I have read the wiki twice in c/glp1science · 142 points · 2 months ago
do not extrapolate rodent data to human dosing without saying so
comment on [Lab] SGN cagri — VendorInvestigate came back 93.7% against a claimed 98.6% in c/hplc · 435 points · 2 months ago
co-elution is real and HPLC is usually not enough to resolve it
comment on sulphur burps is the most under-discussed thing in c/orforglipron in c/sideeffects · 9 points · 2 months ago
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
comment on stalled for 19 weeks at 0.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/glp1muscle · 1 points · 2 months ago
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.
comment on Germany: first time, and what it actually costs here in c/newbiequestions · 7 points · 2 months ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
comment on 6 months in and gradient is still the thing I get wrong in c/hplc · 156 points · 2 months ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with LC-MS, not with what you concluded.
