[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the one who has been off for 1 month.  My doc told me there isn't a maintenance dose of Wegovy (what I took for a year), and that if my weight shot up to a BMI of 27, I could go back on it.[/quote]

27 or 37?

You have another health issue? [/quote]

27 - I lost 45 pounds in 2023, and have high blood pressure[/quote]

I’m surprised they would prescribe for 27. [/quote]

Maybe it was 28, all I can tell you is I went from a size 10 to a size 0, and my health stats are so much better.  Primary Care doc prescribed.  Also used the coupon all year, so I paid only a $25 co pay every 4 weeks.  And toward the end, and the worst time of year for dieting (Halloween through New Years), I stretched out my doses to every 10 days, rather than every week[/quote]

This was a board licensed MD?

Weird. [/quote]

Not sure why you, a stranger on the internet, presumably not an MD, finds it weird that my board certified GP is willing to prescribe Wrgovy (same as Ozempic but for weight loss, not diabetes) as recommended, to someone with a bmi over 27 and one other issue [/quote]

Because 27 is barely overweight. Sounds like a quack. [/quote]
