Cain is an alternative. By domestic standards, he is cheap.

Thanks. I wasn't willing to wait. I placed an order through PCT 24X7, a vendor from the Meso site. I ordered tretinoin instead of Tazarotene. He told me that my order would ship from a different country. He did require that I pay an additional 20% for tariffs. I have a tracking number...

I'm not actually dismissing reta or tirz at the cause. I stopped taking reta at my hepatologist's recommendation. I've continued to take tirz at the hepatologist's recommendation. I did want to emphasize that this is considered a low probability event because I didn't want to panic everyone...

That seems right. Temporarily elevated liver enzymes not exceeding three times the upper limit of normal is not a big deal. It would not surprise me (assuming that reta or tirz is the case) if I could have stayed on reta and been fine. However, with numbers as high as mine have been, I was...

Also, you didn't know for sure that it would be available. I still believe the likelihood is that this stuff remains available and that the price will go down. But I'm not sure.

SSA has a good rep. You got burned but you made no stupid mistakes. I had a similar thing happen with QSC in January. I escaped harm, by chance, this time. I had placed an order with SRY a month ago but things went fine.

Nor do I.

What does that mean?

Tracy's insults were far more funny when he could be counted on to deliver.

Like you, I'm waiting for Tracy's reta to appear. I ordered in January.

GLP-1s rarely cause liver damage. Even in my case, the doctor believes Lipitor is the most likely cause. I had never heard of tudca or NAC before. (I did look them up after seeing your post.) I'm not going to say whether I'd take them right now because I don't know yet. . I'm inclined to...

Usually. Thanks.

I suspect that currently there is more money in GLP-1 drugs than AAS. The people using AAS will also use frequently use GLP-1 drugs.

Maybe we’ll see more vendors who will stay away from AAS stuff.

FDA Demurs on GLP-1 Compounding Fight, Debuts Consumer ‘Green List’ Instead This article argues that the FDA's green list of approved API providers is bad for Eli Lilly and Novo.

I wanted to warn folks about a low probability event: an adverse liver reaction to a GLP-1 drug. For background, my doctor said that I most likely experienced a drug-induced-liver injury (DILI). I have no noticeable symptoms but do have ALT levels 10 times the upper limits or normal and also...

Time for Cain to raise his prices.

I saw at least two vendors who posted stuff today. Those who are low on peptides and worried may choose to look in the vendor forum and contact those. I'm sure there are other vendors who are still active.

I'm in favor of a somewhat gentle culture. I still prefer to be in a forum like this one where if I think something is doing the wrong thing, I can say so.

I've been on meso many times but I'm clearly not manly enough. It seems when we have two people trading insults here, they're usually kind of joking. They're people get offended so easily. Out of fairness to them, I likely would act the same way if was taking what they're taking. However...

I've read elsewhere that these actions shows that the FDA does not intend on trying to enforce patent protection laws against compounding pharmacies and that the stock of both Lilly and Novo dropped a little after the announcement. The companies will have to civilly attempt to shut down...

I think you misunderstood. OP asked about using bacteriostatic saline. I believe that's fine for tirz for not for some other peptides.

I'm a hypocrite because I have a large stash, however, I'll beg to differ with you. Prices tend to drop. Weight loss products keep getting better. I do believe folks who use research peptides should have a minimum stock of 3-6 months, however.

There are plenty of folks who care about your health along with plenty of folks who don't. Even some of the anti-vaxxers and folks advocating for ivermectin usage instead are sincere (along with sizable numbers of people who say those things to make money).

I can't say with certainty that this won't work, but this is the federal government bureaucracy here. I suspect that whatever plan they have now will be discarded within the next six months.

Tirzepatide T60 X 10 = 600 mg T30 X 36 = 1,080 mg Total - 1,680 mg The maximum recommended dose of tirz is 780 mg per year (15 mg X 52 weeks), however, I can tolerate far less than that. It seems I have at least three years worth of tirz. Reta R50 x 10 = 500 mg. R30 X 20 - 600 mg R12 X 2 =...

Let's just say that I'm happy that I won't have need for more reta or tirz for years. I'm hoping that this blows over soon.

I managed to lose 15 pounds of muscle while losing 50 pounds. In retrospect, it would have been better to lose more slowly. I had above average muscle (according to my smart scale) before I began. (No, I never looked buff.) I am happy that I lost the weight. I now have normal muscle mass...

Good thing I only get my research peptides from China.

Curiously, if customs is supposed to collect a large amount of money, then they have an incentive to permit our research peptides to enter the country. The overall trend in peptides has been they've gone down in price. Tariffs would increase the price somewhat.

The Indian online pharmacy, PCT 24X7, recently informed me that they could ship to the US but that I'd have to pay the 20% tariff. I wonder if us paying tariffs is the way of the future for Chinese research peptides.

But not too hard. If we get rid of the pharmaceutical companies, then we won't get new, better drugs.

I haven't used ABC, but I'd agree that if you're going to arrange to have your drug independently tested, it probably makes sense to use one of the less expensive vendors.

If I had a crystal ball, I would not be on the glp1forum attempting to figure out what's going on.

Patient protection? Maybe patent protection.

I insist on a minimum 103% purity. Seriously, this article explains why 70% is better than higher percentages. https://blog.gotopac.com/2017/05/15/why-is-70-isopropyl-alcohol-ipa-a-better-disinfectant-than-99-isopropanol-and-what-is-ipa-used-for/ Several other sites on the net said that 70%...

A COA from Janoshik is strong evidence that the tested substance is as described. However, you usually don't know whether the viasl you received are similar.

Is it? I haven't seen SSA advertise RT60 at a price that would get it that low. I saw it advertised for $360. 360 / (66.2 X 10) = $.54 mg. That's a good price, but not 50 cent per mg. I don' t belong to the SSA Discord. I might have missed a price decrease.

I earlier provided an answer basically stating that folks do not generally develop GLP-1 tolerance over time. I basically meant what I wrote but I believe that someone with medical knowledge who spoke precisely would have answered differently. We do develop tolerance to GLP-1 drugs. That's why...

Your frustration is understandable. Still taking statins is standard medical advice. There are risks in following standard medical advice, along with risks in ignoring standard medical advice. How does he feel now?

Thanks. There is some evidence that taking Lipitor increases the chances one will get diabetes. I do wonder whether it would be wise for me to take a statin now that I have lost weight. However, right now I have ceased taking Lipitor based solely upon concern for my liver.

That makes sense: I don't want a truck driver on the road who can't pay attention because his sugar has fallen too much.

Thank you. I'll discuss this with my cardiologist. I don't use AAS.

Does it bother you that you don't desire alcohol?

And tirzepatide will lower and heading towards the semaglutide type prices. (I'm talking about comparing the price for the maximum recommended doses of each.)

I'm sure you could build up your tolerance again. However, since you haven't been drinking much, I suspect you have not wanted to do so.

I 100% agree. A person who weighs 500 pounds and loses 200 pounds on a GLP-1 drug but has trouble losing anything more probably hasn't experienced tolerance to the drug. Rather, that drug may be only helped so much by the drug. The drug works although not quite as well as the user hopes.

Years ago, because I get bad DOMS, my primary care doctor took me off Lipitor for a few months. I still got DOMS worse than most people. We resumed the Lipitor. The solution when lifting weights is easy although a bit frustrating: I can increase weight without suffering bad DOMS but I can...

Thanks. I looked it up at Drug Induced Liver Injury Rank (DILIrank 2.0) Dataset, https://www.fda.gov/science-research/liver-toxicity-knowledge-base-ltkb/drug-induced-liver-injury-rank-dilirank-20-dataset. You're right. The numbers (5 or 3) indicate the seriousness of the injury that might...
