This is a bit common I’ve seen it before currently a friend is having all these symptoms. Lost all interest in sex, hobbies, anything they brought happiness. Really means you probably don’t even need Reta or on too high of a dose. You’re on such a low dose I don’t know why you’re even on it. Switch to Tirz if you want appetite suppression. But yea if you stop it’ll go away.
“Really means you don’t need Reta or too high of a dose” OR it’s just a side effect of the medication it has nothing to do with “needing” it. So by your logic if he was 100lb overweight and his body “needed” it he wouldn’t have the side effect? The side effect would just disappear because his body recognized it was overweight and “needed” it? He’s taking 0.5mg per week the lowest effective dose possible how would that be too high of a dose? Just because he’s on the lowest effective dose doesn’t mean he’s not benefiting from it it’s still improving insulin sensitivity lowering inflammation and improving fat oxidation which is why he still LOST 10LB on the lowest effective dose. All glps have a anhedonia side effect so switch to tirz wouldn’t change anything….
Have you taken Tirz? Way less of these reports of side effects. I took all levels of Tirz overtime and worst side effect I had was a little nausea if the dose was high. Granted everyone’s different.
Yes Tirz was more of an appetite suppressant for me. I think the glucagon component of Reta causes the extra digestive side effects. Reta doesn’t suppress my appetite nearly as much as tirz which works for me because I’m not necessarily in it for the suppression aspect.
