The calcitonin receptor selectivity distinction is the key pharmacological difference - cagri's broader receptor activity beyond amylin 1/3 is part of why the clinical profiles diverge. The 10% vs 20% weight loss gap at one year is substantial and likely reflects that receptor specificity...

Three weeks at 2.5mg with only the day-of nausea is a clean tolerability profile. The standard is to stay at 2.5 as long as weight is moving and the side effect load is manageable - the escalation to 5mg is indicated by plateau, not timeline. If you're dropping and not suffering, staying at 2.5...

I've needed to increase doses to lose weight. I sometimes get side effects, but it's more related to the foods I eat.

Studies have shown that people with T2D usually lose weight more slowly than those without diabetes.

40 pounds since February is a pace that tends to surprise people when they look back at photos - the internal adjustment lags the actual change by months, and the decade-off comment is usually the first external confirmation that breaks through.

I'm not sure what the pics show. Are both people in both photos taking the same medication?

I love your hair color, it's exactly what I want!

Okay, so I may have gotten the weight wrong. I'm still trying to figure this all out. But the point is, this stuff feels WAY stronger than the stuff I used to get from the pharmacy. Maybe I just got a hot batch? I really appreciate everyone's input!

I had 10mg vials that all weighed 20oz, and I used 100 units or 1ml of sterile water in each. I felt totally out of it and sleepy for 24 hours, but my sugar was great. I'm surprised 2.5mg had such a big effect when I've taken way more before. I was trying to be careful. Does that source usually...

Someone on another forum saw something hit 50% overfill...it wasn't Tirz. They posted it as a warning.

So, I switched to a less mainstream source for my Tirz. I was on 7.5mg from a regular pharmacy, but I started at 2.5mg just in case. But it feels way stronger than the 7.5mg ever did! Is that even possible? On the 2.5mg pharma dose, I had no side effects. Now I'm super tired, my blood sugar is...
