I’d like to see some data on meth against these two. Sure it has some bad side effects but so do these.

Key info:
*** The study was funded by Eli Lilly, the manufacturer of tirzepatide. Multiple authors reported financial relationships with Eli Lilly, including employment. The sponsor was involved in the trial design, data collection, site monitoring, data analysis, and manuscript preparation.***

I would expect that people can still get Ozempic face from the other drug, too, because I believe that is a result of rapid weight loss.

How come we’ve stopped hearing about all the dangerous adverse effects? It seemed like for a while, you couldn’t go a week without hearing about someone who died or had irreversible intestinal problems, or had to be hospitalized.

Someone should do a documentary about how they choose the names for these modern drugs. I guess it’s probably heavily focused grouped, but I can’t help thinking someone in a far off third world village is saying “hey they named a drug after us.”

I was on Mounjaro for 7 weeks. Constipation was not my problem; just the opposite. I see my doctor tomorrow about either going back on (which I am not looking forward to) or switching to a similar medication, such as Wegovy or Ozempic.

Has anybody here had a similar experience?

My wife went from 250 to 140 with Mounjaro. She had no side effects.

I’ve been on Mounjaro for 2 months and lost 16 pounds. You can see it in my face and all over. You have to work out while on Mounjaro to keep looking good. I’m not sure I can stay on it as the side effects are not great, so I’m taking a break for a short time and see how things go. I definitely want to lose another 34 pounds.

Unfortunately, I’m not on it just to lose weight. I was on Metformin which I couldn’t take, so Mounjaro is my second option and if it doesn’t work out, I’m not sure what’s next. More diet and exercise for sure.

I’ve been on terzepatide fora year and nine months. I’ve lost 66 pounds. Was 278, now 212. Diet changes due to minimizing calorie intake. Side effects are negligible. My knees and back are better. I am no longer on high blood pressure meds. Sleep apnea gone. Cholesterol numbers are greatly improved. Other benefits as well. I don’t have any regrets. If it helps, and you’re open to it, go for it. FYI, I get terzepatide via compound pharmacy $399/month no insurance required.
