I’m delighted that there are all these new alternatives. Not only because I believe they will help people. But selfishly because I take .75 mg a week to help manage my glucose level and the weight loss users have made the drug hard to get (even though a dose as small as mine doesn’t help weight loss — in fact I’ve been gaining weight, something I have struggled to do).
A couple of months go the drug stopped being back ordered and the pharmacy said they were prioritizing diabetics. Not sure how they can tell — perhaps my other prescriptions?
- ribosometronome 3y agoPresumably switching to de-prioritizing off-label prescriptions?
- mainedotpy 3y agoYou sure thats Ozempic? Sounds like Trulicity based on the dose.
- halostatue 3y agoI’m on a .25mg/week dose, so I wouldn’t discount the dosage report.
- gumby 3y agoIt is indeed a blue ozempic cylinder. There is one with selectable dosages for ramping up and acclimitizing and a 1.0 mg only for prolonged use, but I got good results before I got to 1.0, so went back down because why not take less. I believe the weight loss dosage of semaglutide is well over 2 mg.
