Tirz has about completely removed my desire to drink. I’ve been heavy drinker at times, and completely sober at times. This seems different, just zero desire - there’s been the same bottles on my counter for months!
Retatrutide's effect on alcohol cravings?

Every study I've seen says sema is best because it bonds best to the right receptor. Maybe try stacking a small amount of sema?

I'm currently on Tirz and doing my annual Dry January - and I think it's definitely much easier than in previous years. Before after a long day's working it would have been sitting in my mind - now I'm just finishing work and I don't even want it. The only time it's been hard is when I've went to the pub to meet friends and watch football - or had a meal out last weekend - being surrounded by people drinking makes you have the social urge, rather than a chemical addiction.

Well the anti-drinking effects of tirz have greatly diminished for me. The disinterest in drinking just didn't last for me. I'm sad and disappointed about that, but I will keep trying to quit and at least cut down. If only because I'm pretty sure that drinking is effectively canceling out much if not all of the helpful Tirz effects, not just weight loss.

No effect on whiskey consumption, yet less to no desire for sugary tropical drinks.
I'm sorry to hear that!
It's definitely died down a bit for me and I get cravings now, which had completely disappeared for me (but could also be attributed to stress right now, idk). But I figure it gives me a chance to practice will power and to continue finding ways to de-stress that don't involve alcohol!

Nice thing is that even though I partake in the spirits too much, liver enzymes are perfect on Reta.
Have you done a full panel? My blood work reads well, but you can still have liver issues/ cirrhosis even if your blood looks okay.
First link I found on it

Since starting Reta in October I have completely wiped out alcohol. I’ve even tried to have a beer or whiskey and I just can’t stomach it.

What is included in a full panel?
i looked at the link you provided and it announces the findings from a 2021 study but I can't see where any medical facilities are actually using the Cirrus algorithm.
Honestly.... I'm not 100% sure all of them. I know it involves more than just AST and ALT. My point was more that liver damage can be sneaky and you won't always see it on basic blood tests until it's pretty far gone.
Agree. The researcher in that study in the UK talks about a "fingerprint" pointing to cirrhosis in basic blood work when liver enzymes ALT and AST are normal, but makes no mention of what specifically those other markers are in the blood work. It's like they left out this information on purpose.
