    Glutathione storage confusion

    Though the tablets I have are 600 mg, I just read that more than 1,000 mg orally can cause GI issues: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vitamins-and-minerals/vitamin-c/#:~:text=What%20happens%20if%20I%20take,diarrhoea The subq/IM/IV route would bypass such GI drama.

    Dosing for dementia prevention?

    Have you looked at IndiaMart? Seems like 10 doses in an ampule, and each ampule is $15 or so. (Kawal doesn't list it on his website, but he has a larger inventory than is reflected there. So you may want to contact him on WhatsApp.)

    I would rely more on marijuana gummies anyway, not to mention the Benadryl.

    Drugs for reta side effects

    Drowsiness is listed as a side effect, so it's not surprising to me that gabapentin can help with sleep, especially since some people discontinue gabapentin due to daytime drowsiness. A meta-analysis.

    Bacteriostatic Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride) vs. Bacteriostatic Water

    I think so. There is no clouding with tirz. And no one has reported any problems. Even the clouding with reta is controversial since @scarywood75 reported no clouding with reta.

    On max dose of sema

    When I paid $550 for my first vial of tirz, that changed a lot of priorities right there. So even at the start, I learned to throw away food despite being cheap, and to not buy any food that was too addictive. And these injections, as I said before, help to undo years of learned hopelessness...

    Lower starting doses

    Well, that's interesting. Because most people who are wary enough to start at 1 mg are not going to get to 5 mg in eight weeks. Or so it seems when there are a number of Reddit people married to 2.5 mg of tirz for 20+ weeks.

    Smoothies and protein shakes become excellent tools for managing these side effects. Since liquids are easier to digest and leave the stomach faster than solids, they offer a gentler way to: Reduce Nausea and Discomfort: Less time in the stomach means less discomfort. Ensure Protein Intake...

    Drugs for reta side effects

    And Benadryl can help with sleep too, as can melatonin, marijuana gummies, and reading the terms of service for every company you deal with. One hack with melatonin is to take a low dose of 1 mg a few hours before bed. On the prescription side, trazodone is relatively easy to get from some...

    Any current Survo users or stackers?

    More proof that reta users are horrible people who only care about themselves and their drug of choice. No respect for authority in general or the FDA in particular. And they litter too. I've seen old reta vials and syringes on the sides of highways. In tirz we trust, until reta we must 🙏

    Dosing for dementia prevention?

    At least for the wealthy, Dr. Seeds in Beverly Hills has experience with using GLPs in dementia patients, trying to balance the potential benefits with the risk of sarcopenia, dehydration, etc. I am guessing he is pretty conservative since he doesn't want lawsuits, and I don't know if most of...

    Lower starting doses

    From what I see online, most microdosers are alarmist about side effects, especially since they can be mitigated with meds and/or diet modifications. Some have not seen their own doctor about GLPs at all, so they are already less likely to seek out medical support to manage dosing or sides...

    I have seen it all now, with placebo starting doses of 0.01 mg for sema (less than half a percent of the max dose of 2.4 mg) and 0.3 mg for tirz (2 percent of the max): https://www.reddit.com/r/GLP1microdosing/ But they have zero side effects 🙃

    Lower efficacy, of course. And yes, it can be a trade-off with side effects. Are these people monitoring their blood sugar continuously? How did glucose control at 1 mg (20 percent of the therapeutic dose) compare to higher doses later on? And anybody with high triglycerides or a fatty...

    Lower starting doses

    From Google Gemini, regarding tirz: Based on the data, particularly for weight loss and hsCRP reduction, the increase in anti-inflammatory effect from 10 mg to 15 mg is present but less dramatic than the jump from the initiation 2.5 mg dose to the therapeutic 5 mg dose. Tirzepatide...

    Lower starting doses

    So should people start on 1.0 mg of tirz? I don't think so. There's always exceptions, but almost no one does that. The 2.5 mg dose is considered the lowest, initiation dose for tirz, with a current maximum of 15 mg that is six times that. I think part of the confusion is because people lose...

    It's also harder for Nexaph to compete on price when their biggest reta is R24, which lasts only two weeks per vial for some people (at over $500 a kit, unless there is a pre-order coming soon allowing one to pay PGB prices of $400). You can get twice the amount, R50, for $300 from SRY or SSA...

    Loose skin prevention? GLOW? KLOW?

    Regarding damage control, tret (retinol) cream can help too (such as from Amazon telehealth and pharmacy, or AllDayChemist and other Indian suppliers like Kawal at DMOnlineMeds). Sunscreen and even oral supplements like asthaxanthin prevent UV damage, which would only make things worse.
