what changed for me between week 60 and week 8

Question Receipts ×9 Sourced ×1 Cold Box ×1

Right, the oral GLP-1 question again, but with numbers this time.

I have 14 data points over 4 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.

The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 27, not week 76. People give up long before the interesting part.

Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.

small molecule, not a peptide, purity discussion is different

The thing nobody prepared me for was the quiet. Not the appetite, the quiet. The constant negotiation in my head about food just stopped.

no cold chain means oral GLP-1, if approved

Small correction: the trial was 24 weeks, not 40. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

Week 26 for me and the honest summary is: 7kg down, reflux manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.

Adding to this: ATTAIN is doing more work than the comment implies.

Strongly agree. The supply impact would be huge.

phase 9 data is interesting, phase 20 will tell the real story

the small molecule is whether this actually works long-term

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

the supply conversation changes if this approves

The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.

Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

u/deleted_my_history33 points·1 year ago

Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.

the UK here. Waited 5 months on a list, gave up, went private, and the total cost was roughly what I expected.

About c/orforglipron

The small-molecule oral: why a non-peptide agonist escapes the absorption problems of oral semaglutide, what the ATTAIN and ACHIEVE readouts showed, and what a pill with no refrigeration requirement would do to the entire supply conversation this site is built around.
