I tried Ozempic once, and it didn't really do much for me. I made it up to Mounjaro 7.5mg as well, and it was mostly the same. I'm a bit of an odd ball as I need to lose a bunch of weight, but my HbA1C has always been normal at 4.9. I'm rarely super hungry even without taking these meds. My thyroid is a bit sluggish, so I started treating that in case it's part of the problem, but I'm hoping reta with the glucagon piece might help kick start something the others never did.

Did anyone find themselves in a similar situation where Sema or Tira didn't work so great but Reta maybe did? Thanks.
 
I'm early on in my journey, but I can safely say... Don't waste your time with pre-filled pens / USA/Canada-based distributors. Find a solid overseas direct manufacturer / vendor, take a look on here you'll find some info.

I wasted ~$300 CAD on a pre-filled pen, and then spent $300 USD for a year's supply equivalent. Furthermore, there are some refillable / reusable pens that are great. You can reconstitute the peptide and fill the pen with it, just like the disposable Mounjaro-style pens, without needing to mess with insulin syringes etc.

Yah don't worry, I got some vials from a trusted source on order and have arranged testing with one of the main labs in Europe. I'll have enough for a few years worth when I start. But good advice!
