comment on [Lab] 12th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/semaglutide · 168 points · 3 months ago
Not to be pedantic but titration and Wegovy are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on small win: appeal stopped being a problem at week 5 in c/insurancefights · 39 points · 3 months ago
This is correct. Appeal letters work.
comment on Spain: Wegovy, and what it actually costs here in c/semaglutide · 3 points · 3 months ago
Ozempic versus Wegovy versus research grade is the wrong argument, they are literally the same molecule
comment on [Discussion] the incretin advice in here is 14 years out of date in c/glp1science · 13 points · 3 months ago
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #5 — France, 3 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/glp1uk · 1 points · 3 months ago
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

The tier 3 pathway in my area: 7 month wait, then 36 months for review, then approved. Total NHS.
comment on the USDC thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/cryptopay · 252 points · 3 months ago
Mechanistically the bit that matters is chargeback. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for gastric emptying posts in c/glp1science · 3 points · 3 months ago
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
Adding to this: mechanism is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for pharmacology posts in c/glp1science · 5 points · 3 months ago
gastric emptying is real and explains most early muscle cramps
comment on am I the only one who found titration harder than the injections in c/semaglutide · 49 points · 4 months ago
pens are overpriced, research vials are research grade, same molecule different price
comment on transit time — 4 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/intlshipping · 158 points · 4 months ago
Customs held the package for 13 days. No problems, just time. Factor it into expectations.
comment on help me understand network, I have read the wiki twice in c/cryptopay · 18 points · 4 months ago
the 10% discount versus 27% network fees
comment on someone explain tendon to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/bpc157 · 4 points · 4 months ago
BPC regulatory is a naming problem, three things are called this
comment on [Question] gastric emptying — what am I missing here in c/glp1science · 62 points · 4 months ago
the half-life is receptor, affects steady state timing
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify rodent data in c/bpc157 · 14 points · 4 months ago
Did anything else change in the same window?
comment on three years of hepatic fat threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/survodutide · 10 points · 5 months ago
not approved, descriptive posts only
comment on week 31 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/bpc157 · 5 points · 5 months ago
Second this question. I have wondered about tendon for 23 months and never seen a straight answer.
comment on week 31 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/bpc157 · 9 points · 5 months ago
This is correct.
Adding to this: regulatory is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on week 31 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/bpc157 · 0 points · 5 months ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on week 31 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/bpc157 · 1 points · 5 months ago
This is correct.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 5 weeks to accept.
