I was taking prescribed ozempic as it was not too expensive in Australia , at least at the low doses I could tolerate of 0.8mg per week, but even then I was nauseous for a year. After a lot of research and calculations I worked out that swapping to tirzepatide at the calculated equivalent dose of 3-4 mg a week would be a similar price despite each 4 x 15 mg pen costing $790 Aud. Worked great and no nausea but needed higher doses to suppress appetite than I had calculated. Given that I was and still am taking it to make it easier to tolerate a 50% weight loss, and putting that weight back on carried pretty high medical risks, of maybe a few percent chance of death or very serious illness per year, the risk benefit equation is really simple, almost no matter how dangerous grey market tirzepatide is , it is much less dangerous than not taking it, and I could not afford the retail version. And the way the market seems to work, assuming the source has been "crowd tested" on a forum like this, the odds are actually very good of getting what you order, and there is a strong motive to sell good peptides if they want to stay in business. At a guess, going on the number of people on this forum ordering peptides versus the number of known cases where peptides were mislabelled or contaminated, the odds are way less than 1 in a hundred and possibly less than 1 in a thousand.
