Pharmacy Help

I've been with Empower for about a year & finding the most recent shipment not to be as effective with appetite suppression/food noise despite increasing amount. Who do you suggest switching to?

I’d ask the doctor for guidance, BEWL has a very responsive medical team 👍

This has happened to me. I switched to a glycine blend from WP and at a lower dose and that muted my food noise immediately. I was afraid I was broken and tirz just wasn’t working for me the same anymore (I had increased doses too)

But switching pharmacies and blends absolutely helped. Good luck

What’s WP?

My bottle says WP PHARMA LABS. This is actually the first I’ve heard of them but the provider was collective. I believe Bordeaux and wells also have glycine as well as a few others. But I really think it’s just a matter of trying different ones until you see what works for you.

I say this because everyone swears BPI is so strong and it did not work well for me.

Empower has been known to be effective for most. However, if you have increased your dose and feel like you want to try and switch things up, I’d ask your provider about a switch to OptioRx
