Cagrilintide and Rapid Insulin

[Deadpool99]

Hey guys,
I am on 12mg reta and thinking of adding Cagrilintide to it. However cagri is know for slowing gastric emptying dramatically, which may delay the glucose entering the bloodstream and when using rapid insulin, when Humalog peaks, the carbs might not be absorbed. Thus potentially going hypo.

Has anyone tried Cagrilintideand Insulin together, if so was this an issue?

Hi,
I plan to test also cagrilintide after longer time on retatrutide.
I think the dosing is in start very low because of Lethargie all over the day.
Do you have start with Cagrilintide yet and tell me about.

I've been on cag for a while. Did a trial run with slin last weekend. Covered with carbs from dextrose. Tried 2 days in a row taking BG every 10 minutes for an hour, then an hour later. Everything was perfect. Also on 7.5mg tirz which delays gastric emptying. No issues at all.

Yeah turns our that was some ChatGpt BS. Technically it might be an issue is the very higher doses.

Even then it’s negligible

Yeah,
I’m a bad responder to glp1, 15mg reta + 4mg Cagri

Reached 4mg cagri within 4 weeks. However it is working, better than upping my reta atleast.
