So I think most of us dose as recommended - by the calendar weekly, or twice a week by splitting doses.
I was wondering if anyone had tried ignoring 'time since last dose' and simply injecting when they feel like they could benefit from the effects of the reta.
As I switch from tirz, I'm considering taking a small dose of 0.5mg whenever I feel like I'm no longer benefitting from my last dose.
I think this could have some pros:-
Cons:-
-I guess it could put me at risk of dosing too high, but hopefully the small starting dose would mitigate that risk.
Are there any risks with this approach that I'm missing? I'm hesitant to receive a new medication and start injecting 2+mg just because I have prior experience with another GLP-1, so any advice would be appreciated.

I think this could have some pros:-
- Instead of guesstimating equivalent doses, I'm assuming my average reta dose will 'settle' at where my body needs it.
- I can be more reactive to potential side-effects.
