anyone else notice discontinuation kicking in around week 29
Right, the tapering question again, but with numbers this time.
I have 20 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.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
What was the batch number and which service?

Adding to this: discontinuation is doing more work than the comment implies.
Slight fix: the number was 97.6, not 95.1. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
Second this question. I have wondered about interval stretching for 18 months and never seen a straight answer.
Maintenance for 13 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.
Came off after 43 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.

the people who came off and restarted without shame
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 discontinuation arms show regain
I am going to push back on this slightly.

Disagree on that part. 96.8% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.

the regain is treatment of chronic condition ending, not failure
Yeah, regain is not a failure.
regain on taper is expected, plan for it
regain on taper is expected, plan for it
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 30 weeks to accept.
This is correct. Discontinuation data is real.
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
tapering instructions are not welcome here

the 16 week discontinuation arm is the data
Yeah, regain is not a failure.
The the food-noise thing was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.
Strongly agree. The regain is expected.
