I don’t think the compound versions are going away. My provider adds Vitamin K so it will not be discontinued.


That’s not the way patent laws works. You can’t just add a vitamen and effectively make a drug under patent a generic. It would effective destroy patent protection for all drugs.

That’s pretty common, you’ll get more used to it.

Tirzepatide is much better according to studies. I still have side effects 8 months later but not too bad and I seem to be an anomaly.

BUT it's going away as a compounded form and I don't have coverage for weight loss meds so might have to go to semaglutide which I do not want to do. I'll have to deal with side effects all over again and it's not as effective.

I only have about 6-8 pounnds to lose but I have zero faith I can keep it off without the meds.


I think PP means they are close to goal weight but planned to continue the medication in a maintenance dose and are concerned they will only have access to semaglutide bc tirzepatide was just ruled to not be in a Shortage by the fda.


OP here - I have 6-8 pounds remaining! I lost 30 pounds already. Sorry I did not make that clear.
No I would not use meds for 6-8 pounds

Which company do you use? Semaglutide was terrible for me (nausea, fatigue all the time) and would love to switch but this seems so pricey most places.

I have found tirzepatide to be SO much better than semaglutide! I was on Ozempic for 8 months and lost an average of about a pound a week but had nausea pretty much every day, frequent constipation, and just felt tired most of the time. I went all the way up to 2mg, then insurance approved me for Mounjaro two months ago. I started at 7.5mg, and felt a difference almost immediately. No nausea unless I haven't eaten in a while, no headaches or fatigue after the shot, and just feel great in general. My weight loss also got a bit of a boost! I've lost 50 lbs as of today, 35 of that was on Ozempic.

I’m thinking of trying HERS. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
