comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about dead space until somebody posts a number in c/reconstitution · 166 points · 4 months ago
dead space is real and the syringe matters
comment on week 21 check-in — 37kg down, early fullness manageable, one thing confusing me in c/insurancefights · 24 points · 5 months ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on [Lab] 7th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/coldchain · 3 points · 5 months ago
no tracking numbers, no full addresses, no label photos — instant removal
comment on the excursion thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/coldchain · 214 points · 6 months ago
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.
comment on the ACHIEVE question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/orforglipron · 30 points · 6 months ago
small molecule purity is different testing than peptides
comment on [PSA] shortage is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/glp1aus · 36 points · 7 months ago
Small correction: the trial was 12 weeks, not 10.
Disagree on that part. 98.1% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Results] 56 weeks on 0.25mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/insurancefights · -36 points · 7 months ago
the carve-out clause varies by employer
comment on is it normal to get constipation at week 14 in c/orforglipron · 22 points · 7 months ago
the small molecule is whether this actually works long-term
comment on data logger: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/coldchain · -10 points · 7 months ago
a warm courier van is a bigger problem for a mixed vial than for dry powder
comment on the Netherlands: dead space, and what it actually costs here in c/reconstitution · 60 points · 8 months ago
This is correct. 1mL versus 8mL is the common mistake.
comment on three years of dead space threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/reconstitution · 0 points · 8 months ago
Rodent data is rodent data.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 69 weeks to accept.
comment on Denmark: step therapy, and what it actually costs here in c/insurancefights · 19 points · 9 months ago
the carve-out clause varies by employer
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 48 weeks to accept.
comment on the copay question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/insurancefights · 21 points · 10 months ago
This is correct. Appeal letters work.
comment on [Question] TGA — what am I missing here in c/glp1aus · 22 points · 10 months ago
Strongly agree. AU and NZ differ.
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring PBS at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/glp1aus · 0 points · 10 months ago
The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.
comment on mg/mL: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/reconstitution · 155 points · 10 months ago
Cosigning. The concentration on the vial in marker is load-bearing.
comment on reading stability threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/coldchain · 303 points · 11 months ago
Mechanistically the bit that matters is data logger. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
comment on genuine question about denial that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/insurancefights · 12 points · 1 year ago
denial reason codes matter, ask for the actual code
comment on lyophilised — my 23-week log, condensed into one table in c/coldchain · 3 points · 1 year ago
a warm courier van is a bigger problem for a mixed vial than for dry powder
comment on three years of units threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/reconstitution · 79 points · 1 year ago
Show the arithmetic. Where did the units come from?
