Stalled? Tira bump or switch to Reta?

Personalized dosing sounds amazing. I'm tired of just following the standard schedule.

I agree - pushing for small changes instead of the usual dose jumps made a huge difference for me. Maybe talk to your provider about it!
 
Six weeks of Terz is workable timing to make the switch - 8mg Reta can restart a stall, and some respond better to the mechanism anyway. Have next supply lined up before you're deciding under pressure.
 
The switch both ways story is useful context. 25 pounds in 2 months on Tirz and then switching to Reta for speed - if it meant coming back to Tirz, that's relevant for your partner's decision. 7.5mg with 75 down and close to goal is a good spot. A dose bump might get them there without switching.
 
Reta after Tirz is exactly the adjustment problem - the Tirz appetite suppression is strong enough that anything else feels like a step down at first. You gotta give Reta a few months before comparing it fairly to what Tirz did. The cornerstone effect fades but the Reta mechanism works differently.
 
The slower Reta titration has benefits beyond side effect management - the glucagon receptor component produces a more pronounced metabolic shift as dose increases, and the body needs time to adapt to the combined triple-agonist load. Rushing the schedule can also make it harder to identify the minimum effective dose.
