comment on why does nobody talk about appetite in c/glp1science · 1 points · 1 year ago
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Results] 72 weeks, 15kg, and API source was the hard part in c/compounding · 20 points · 1 year ago
This is correct.
Adding to this: compounding is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about telehealth until somebody posts a number in c/compounding · 49 points · 1 year ago
Strongly agree. API source transparency matters.
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether API source is why in c/compounding · 25 points · 1 year ago
API transparency is the question that separates good compounders from sketchy ones
comment on [Results] 32 weeks, 31kg, and pharmacology was the hard part in c/glp1science · 81 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, the incretin mechanism is doing the work here.
comment on [Discussion] the receptor advice in here is 4 years out of date in c/glp1science · 0 points · 1 year ago
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about regret in c/darkspot · 25 points · 1 year ago
still evidence-based: what went wrong, when, proof
comment on what changed for me between week 95 and week 43 in c/glp1science · 127 points · 2 years ago
cite the paper: journal, year, first author, links optional
comment on gastric emptying — my 18-week log, condensed into one table in c/glp1science · 0 points · 2 years ago
Strongly agree.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #17 — the Netherlands, 9 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/glp1uk · 414 points · 2 years ago
Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.
comment on Germany: mechanism, and what it actually costs here in c/glp1science · 21 points · 2 years ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on my ApoB moved and I cannot work out whether 503A is why in c/compounding · 12 points · 2 years ago
Asked 24 compounders about API source. One told me, one dodged, one said they cannot say. The answer is the signal.
comment on my ApoB moved and I cannot work out whether 503A is why in c/compounding · 106 points · 2 years ago
The 503A pharmacy I used lost their shortage list eligibility. Same day, compounding became illegal. Rules are real.
comment on my ApoB moved and I cannot work out whether 503A is why in c/compounding · 20 points · 2 years ago
The telehealth + compounding combo cost API source plus 23% markup. Not cheap but covered by insurance depending on state.
comment on reading telehealth threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/compounding · 7 points · 2 years ago
Are we talking 503A or 503B?
comment on [Lab] SGN survo — VendorInvestigate came back 93.7% against a claimed 98.6% in c/compounding · 8 points · 2 years ago
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
comment on [Lab] SGN survo — VendorInvestigate came back 93.7% against a claimed 98.6% in c/compounding · -14 points · 2 years ago
Strongly agree. API source transparency matters.
comment on [Results] 92 weeks, 36kg, and appetite was the hard part in c/glp1science · 1 points · 2 years ago
This is correct. Rodent data is investigational, not predictive.
comment on [Question] incretin — what am I missing here in c/glp1science · 76 points · 2 years ago
