Switching tirzy to RETA

[Approach]

I've been on tirzy for 3 months.

My last 2 injections were 10mg/weekly. My subject will be switching from compound tirzy to compound RETA

**** Can you give suggestions on a medium to a to slightly aggressive approach to switch to RETA? And, what RETA dose should the subject start with? For ex, lower tirzy to 5mg/week and add a small dose of RETA??

I have 2 tirzy injections left. I prefer not to buy more after this if possible. Thus, I hope to be completely off tirzy after that.

Thanks!
Tom

I think most people give it more than 3 months before switching. Are you having bad side effects? I think the max dose on tirzy is 15mg, so you still had/have options.

I'm starting with sema because it's cheaper. Once I stall out completely, I'll switch to tirzy.

Some people use sema and tirzy, or tirzy and reta.

But curious as to why you want to switch after only 3 months??

reta isn't available as a compound as it hasn't been approved by the FDA. i hope you just meant you bought reta yourself and reconstituted it

How has your RS responded?

Switching from one to another will kind of require you do be on the same month as the previous, so if you were a 1mg sema that would equal to a 7.5 tirzy or an 8 Reta. I would only take one step down when switching to see if the new stuff is even effective, some suggest to restart from the bottom but it might waste time for you to get caught up to an effective dose for yourself. I ran into a Sema 2.4mg and a 5mg tirzy didn’t do anything till around 10mg tirzy. Everyone’s reaction to the next glp1 is different so if you want to be on the safe side and not be wasteful, start low and keep moving up til you feel it work. Hope this helps.
