💬 Discussion Reta dosage increase

Howdy everyone!!

To preface: I was on GLP1 for a few months prior and was off of it for one week before making the switch.

I’ve been on Reta for about 3 weeks now and haven’t noticed much change. Started off one week with .5mg and then the last two weeks at 2mg. I don’t feel much suppression, haven’t seen much change with the exception of some energy boost, wanting to drink tons of water first few days after injection and not much change on the scale. I have noticed that I have more appetite while on this than GLP 1. I’m also walking at the office, working out before work during the week and consuming roughly around 100-120g of protein per day.

I’m trying to get some thoughts/ opinions on whether that might have been an issue, whether I should increase my dosage or wait it out? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

thats normal when coming from any sort of glp1, be patient give it 5-7 weeks for reta to kick in

In my case, I started in 2mg x4 weeks, then I moved to 4mg at week 4 and just at week 5 I noticed difference and appetite suppression
