comment on constipation — 19 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/sideeffects · 27 points · 9 months ago
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.

Week 86 for me and the honest summary is: 47kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, and the quiet happened around week 10.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about moderation until somebody posts a number in c/meta · 32 points · 1 year ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on switched from 1.0mg to 2.5mg and the sulphur burps got better, not worse in c/sideeffects · 25 points · 1 year ago

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

Did the constipation start before or after the dose increase?

nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 60 is worth checking
comment on receptor: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/glp1science · 114 points · 1 year ago
The half-life is 18 hours, which means week 18 is genuinely still ramp-up. Week 22 is steady state.
