Some people say it's an "off-label" use -- but that's up to the doctor and patient ultimately.
But I think that's okay -- because the main purpose is weight loss and reduction of caloric cravings. Alcohol is a caloric craving. So it should be fine.
- wkat4242 1y agoThat wasn't their main purpose as they were brought to market. Even the anti obesity is an off label use. I don't think it would get me off alcohol though. I only drink to relax and be more social. Not because I enjoy it or the taste. But it means I drink rarely anyway.
- bb88 1y agoI can tell you that being on it, food to me just tastes different. So even if you didn't enjoy it, what typically happens to me anyway, is the off flavors get magnified. Like the easiest one is Costco Chili. It tasted vastly different when I was off of it than on it. I taste more of the bitter notes. The complexity is more off putting to me. I inject on say Sunday nights, and on Monday an IPA tastes terrible. But on Friday it tastes tolerable again. And this is a pretty consistent pattern I've noticed.
