I was reading a thread about peptides, and someone was asking about adding GHRP-2, GHRP-6, or sermorelin to their TRT. Their doc suggested it for body composition changes, but they were skeptical about the cost-benefit ratio, since it's a long game with subtle results. Someone replied that...

You're stressing too much. Most people consider 3 months a normal time to keep tirzepatide refrigerated. It doesn't really degrade or get unsterile. Many pharmacies send out 3-month supplies with refrigeration instructions. Just swab with alcohol before poking the vial each time. If you're...

Thanks for the tips! We'll definitely try those out. The water intake is a good reminder - it's easy to forget to drink enough.

Hey, side question: Does anyone know if compounding pharmacies ship overseas if you have a valid prescription?

Thanks for sharing this.

You look amazing 👏🏻. Congrats on searching for and finding a “better version” of you. We’re all on that hunt. What an awesome transformation! My wife has a similar body type/starting weight as you and has been experiencing a bit of a plateau early on. Is there a particular dosage or practice...

Wow, look how far you've come since late '24! I remember your post about hitting the 40 lb loss, and another 20 lbs since then has really transformed you! This is so inspiring and exciting!

I think this is for official imports, not our underground Chinese stuff.

I wonder what size backup power supply I would need for my little -40 freezer 🤔

Congrats on hitting your goal ! I'd suggest staying on your current dose through the holidays, then consider tapering down or staying put. Focus on strength training to maintain muscle and bone density.

You may not feel different, but your body and joints are grateful! Thanks for sharing your journey.

You look fantastic and much younger! Congrats!

There's some buzz that GLP-1s might get more coverage under Medicare and Medicaid. Biden's apparently pushing for it. Crossing my fingers that something comes of it. It's just a proposal now, but it's a start!

To Caffeine_Queen's point, it highlights the need for affordable access. It's not just about convenience; it's about quality of life for many of us. I hope the generics significantly reduce the cost for everyone who needs it.

It's already happening here in the US. Generic versions of both Liraglutide (Victoza) and Exenatide (Bydureon) are available. I saw Liraglutide going for about $25 for a 3-month supply.

Word on the street is, according to the Globe and Mail, we might see some generic versions of Ozempic hitting the Canadian market sometime next year. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-ozempic-generic-brands-canada-type-2-diabetes/

Yeah, Wolf_Cookie, people do stock up for various reasons... but be really careful about storing this stuff in the fridge door! The temp fluctuations can mess with the medication.

It's the price per dose. Average wholesale price is the average price a pharmacy pays. It varies, but that's the average. There's very little markup; the drug company gets almost all of it.

Here's the pricing I found: Zepbound: 2.5mg = $104.70, 5mg = $149.70, 7.5mg = $179.70, 10mg = $209.70 Mounjaro: ALL DOSAGES = $323.93 Zepbound Auto-injector: ALL DOSAGES = $325.91 This is the Average Wholesale Price according to Medi-Span. You have to multiply by 4 to get the monthly cost, and...

It’s a very lucrative market. It's awful, yet people will pay for it.
