Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 5mg, week 19, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable —…

comment on week 56 check-in — 26kg down, fatigue manageable, one thing confusing me in c/tapering · 20 points · 5 months ago
Strongly agree. The regain is expected.
comment on what changed for me between week 20 and week 63 in c/compounding · 42 points · 6 months ago
The telehealth + compounding combo cost telehealth plus 23% markup. Not cheap but covered by insurance depending on state.
comment on [PSA] tapering is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/tapering · 92 points · 6 months ago
This is correct. Discontinuation data is real.

appetite return timelines vary interval stretching
comment on 4 months in and dead space is still the thing I get wrong in c/reconstitution · 86 points · 6 months ago
This is correct. 2mL versus 21mL is the common mistake.
comment on 4 months in and dead space is still the thing I get wrong in c/reconstitution · 287 points · 6 months ago
Small correction: the trial was 13 weeks, not 35.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Small correction: the trial was 13 weeks, not 35. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
comment on reading retatrutide threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/retatrutide · 455 points · 7 months ago
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

regulatory claims need a citation to the actual rule, not interpretation

telehealth prescriber models exist, pricing differs by state
comment on [Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on LC-MS in c/hplc · 64 points · 7 months ago
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for 503B posts in c/compounding · 10 points · 8 months ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
comment on the Netherlands: dead space, and what it actually costs here in c/reconstitution · 128 points · 8 months ago
This is correct. 3mL versus 15mL is the common mistake.
comment on is it normal to get nausea at week 19 in c/reconstitution · 7 points · 8 months ago
Small correction: the trial was 11 weeks, not 3. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
comment on retatrutide vs triple agonist — genuinely asking which matters more in c/retatrutide · 310 points · 8 months ago
Strongly agree. Heart rate escalation needs the actual data, not impressions.
comment on is it normal to get constipation at week 95 in c/reconstitution · -20 points · 8 months ago
This is correct. 2mL versus 3mL is the common mistake.
comment on 15 months in and purity is still the thing I get wrong in c/hplc · 0 points · 9 months ago
area% and mass% are not the same and this whole post conflates them
comment on three years of LC-MS threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/hplc · 1 points · 9 months ago
This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.
comment on the TRIUMPH thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/retatrutide · 1 points · 10 months ago
phase 2 numbers are not maintenance numbers, cite the trial
Adding to this: triple agonist is doing more work than the comment implies.
