I think, barred some horrible, long term side-effects, we need to accept that people will be staying on those drugs for a long time.

- nisegami 9mo agoI'm currently on my second extended period of GLP1 agonist unavailability (country-wide). The one I have been using is dulaglutide which is much less potent than the newer ones (it's the only one legally imported here) but being cut off still sucks. However, it's far from the only medication I'm on and not even close to the worst one to be cut off from or the first one I've had issues getting. It's just part of life in the third world at this point.
