MESO-Rx
Anabolic Steroids
Small batch of about 300 cases from the US Warehouse early November from what I understand. No luck finding testing nor anyone in the group testing servers to go in on testing. I think it was just too small of a batch. I am through just over 2 vials and I like it. I've only been taking a few milligrams a week on top of Tirz. It helped me break a 4 week stall in early December and I got through the holidays (lots of family, ridiculous meals, and lots of booze) without gaining any weight so I am satisfied.
Thanks for this. I had an order of orange caps delivered around that time too and someone else who did also had testing that just showed slightly under dosed at 9.8mg I think. Hm.
I'm not trying to lose any weight, just keep stable at this point and possibly wean off. I'm at 4mg reta. I have less sides than with tirz, but I'm also at a lower equivalent dose, so it's hard to say.
Nothing will suppress appetite as much as Sema. The other drugs in the class only result in better weightloss than Sema in trials because they target other receptors that trigger other weight loss processes.
My doctor is far too busy to advise on nutrition, exercise, diet. How did the health care system get so messed up?? Congrats on your weight loss.
Thanks. It's amazing what some clarity on mind and body will do. The healthcare system is rigged against those it should protect to generate profit. I feel like if I would have followed my primary cares advice I would have been a lifelong ward of the system.
I think tirz is the best out of the 3. Some ppl react differently to each so it’s hard to say. Reta seems to cause heart issues and to new to determine long effects which has kept me from trying. Ppl do have great results from it, but the heart issues isn’t one I want to take a chance on. I def. Would not stack until you have been on one a while. Then you can slowly incorporate a tiny dose of another. Tirz. Really seems to be the best to start with and move up in dosing after 6 weeks or so. They all last about 5 days so your appetite may come back. Some ppl will add a small dose of sema or Reta after 3-4 days for that reason. Reta, from my research doesn’t start affecting the heart until higher doses and the ones taking it do have great results. It’s just a chance you take
She's been on Tirz for a couple months now. I just stick to Sema for now.
They do, but Reta is causing more arrhythmias in studies and has this weird stimulant effect that’s absent from other GLP-1s . 6 mg of Reta was making me feel stimmed the fuck out with my ADD medicine, I ended up having to drop Reta back down to 4 mg and add 0.5 mg/week of sema in place of it. I feel better now.
No
Of note, 17 out of 198 (9%) participants in the retatrutide group developed cardiac arrhythmia
One should evaluate their risk model before proceeding.
When was this study posted ? Only info I could find was “Weight reductions among the participants who received retatrutide were accompanied by improvements in cardiometabolic measures, including waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and glycated hemoglobin, fasting glucose, insulin, and lipid levels (with the exception of HDL cholesterol),” write Ania M. Jastreboff, MD, PhD (Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT), and colleagues in the paper, published online June 26, 2023,
Been on ~6 weeks of reta (started at 1mg/week and titrated to 3mg/week) and I've been dealing with a near constant arythmia. Based on my apple watch EKG and chatgpt, I believe it's premature ventricular contractions (PVCs).
Do we have any data on whether this usually goes away once people stop using it?
Not sure but I've had the arythmia before in the past so it's not necessarily caused by the reta. Could just be correlated and my arythmia is being triggered by something else like anxiety/stress. Either way I'm going to lower the reta dose because it's strong enough even at 2mg/week. I don't understand how some people are running it at 8mg/week and can still eat food
Ok good to know, thanks! I'm hoping I can stay towards the lower end of the dosage range too since I seem pretty responsive to low dose sema.Not sure but I've had the arythmia before in the past so it's not necessarily caused by the reta.
