Reta with Sema

[Sandman1972]

Has anyone used both at the same time? Used Sema for the higher GLP 1 affinity, Reta for everything else? If so what was your dose? Thanks

I’m in month 4 of a Reta/Sema stack. The goal was to completely switch over to Reta but I like the appetite suppression I get from Sema. I’m on week 6 of 6mg Reta and three days later 1mg of Sema. The last 4 weeks it’s been a steady 1-1.5lb a week loss. The worst side effect so far has been allodynia which is no worse or no better than it was with Sema alone.

I take 1mg of sema on Sunday followed by 2mg of reta on Wednesday.
I started sema on May 4th. I took an extra month at .5mg but otherwise followed the standard wegovy titration schedule. I started reta on August 6th and gradually upped the dose until I got to 2mg on September 2th. I plan to sit at these doses for awhile.

I have lost about 35 pounds at this point and my only side effect has been some discomfort during bowel movements. Nothing that isn't manageable.

Awesome. Thanks

I think I will start with that. Thanks for sharing.
