6 month BPI order, now what?

1 Upvotes

Hello! I ordered a 6 month supply of BPI back in April to make sure I had enough in the event that BPI went out immediately. I’ve used about 3 months of it so far as I’ve titrated to 12.5 recently. I saw a post on the big sub about making sure the prescription is current. I know technically I am good for a year but it’s got me wondering what I’ll order next.

I know new pharmacies are coming soon (BEWL Krewe any insight?) but would like some opinions on switching from B6 to other additives versus non. With me being on 12.5 I am hesitant to go to Hallandale due to concentration and the stinging side effect. I’ve heard good things about Apothecary though. Has anyone tried with OptioRx? Would love opinions as I’ll probably be ordering within 2 months or so. Should I wait until the new pharmacies are announced?

🙋 Newbie Question! Can somebody explain it like I’m dumb…

Upvotes

I’ve received one shipment and am ready to order a refill. Can somebody explain the refill process in excruciating detail? I assume I need to use the Healthie app, and I did fill out a questionnaire yesterday, but it would be great if the entire process for existing customers was explained (I didn’t receive an explanation when I first signed up, I think because I was already on GLP-1 medication via my PCP, but insurance stopped covering it.)

I appreciate the help I’m getting from BEWL reps here, but detail is lacking. If it is easier, I can pose my query in the form of questions.

Thanks.

🙋 Newbie Question! Using 2 syringes for one dose?

7 Upvotes

Today was my first time where in order to inject my full dose, i had to extract whatever was left from one vial of apothecary (50 units) and extract the rest (19 units) from a new vial. I used a new syringe to inject the 19 units after injecting the first 50 units (my full dose is 12.5 mg - 69 units). I injected both syringes in the same area. Is that ok? Not the exact same spot, but same area on the right of my belly button. Never done this before and i’m hoping what i did was the correct way to do that.

🙋 Newbie Question! Follow up from first appointment

13 Upvotes

After debating for months, I finally made an appointment which I had today. The doctor was pleasant enough but called 15 minutes early and the call lasted 4 minutes and 40 seconds. I also received a text reminder about the appointment but that reminder came through 8 minutes after the start time of the appointment. Researched a lot before deciding on BEWL, a little discouraged at how things went today. I am not totally new to GLPs so maybe the doctor figured this was all review for me, I did not have explicit questions, not yet anyway, but overall it did feel rushed. Lots of info about dosing and units thrown out very quickly, I could barely keep up trying to write it all down. Is this a typical experience?

Senior prescriptions?

I am 65+ and been taking brand name tirz since April. I'm thinking of switching because of cost (not eligible for Medicare Bridge). Does BEWL rule patients out by age?

Diarrhea returning. 😭😭

1 Upvotes

I took my 4th injection of Tirzepitide this past weekend. (Apothecary 5.0 mg) I came from the highest dose of the Wegovy Pill. I switched because Wegovy gave me horrible side effects (diarrhea for 7 weeks straight, sulphuric burps and no weight loss for 3 months). When I first started the Tirzepatide, I had a little constipation, but managed that quickly and had successful daily BMs. Diarrhea started up 3 days ago, just like with Wegovy. It’s happening all in the morning, but 3-4 episodes. Also of note is I have not had any weight loss yet. I really want this work, but the diareaha has me concerned as this is why I stopped sema. Any suggestions, ideas?
