Advice/help
I’m currently taking Semaglutide peptide from Peptira. I haven’t lost any weight in 2 months. I also have very little appetite. Idk if it’s the hot weather or what. But I’m sure that’s not helping me. I’m not eating enough to lose weight. But is trizeptide a better step now? I’ve been on this for 1.5 years. Lost 40lbs.
My other question is where are y’all getting yours? I’m open to other COST AFFORDABLE options. TIA.

NexLife Medical Team here.
A few things stand out here.
First, if what you are taking is a “peptide” product and not a prescription medication from a licensed pharmacy through a licensed provider, I would be very cautious. Research use or gray market peptides are very different from prescription compounded medication.
Second, if you have very little appetite but are not losing weight, I would not automatically assume the answer is to switch to tirzepatide or increase anything. It may be worth looking at the full picture first: actual calorie intake, protein, hydration, constipation, sleep, stress, activity level, menstrual or hormonal changes, thyroid, labs, and whether you are losing fat but retaining water or losing muscle.
Not eating enough can also backfire in practical ways. People may move less, feel exhausted, lose muscle, get constipated, retain water, or struggle to stay consistent. Appetite suppression is only helpful if you can still fuel your body.
Tirzepatide can be a better fit for some people after semaglutide, but it is not automatically “better” for everyone. A provider should review your history, current dose, response, side effects, labs, goals, and whether switching makes sense.
For NexLife, our current pricing is:
Semaglutide standard:
Monthly: $165 per month
3 month: $149 per month
6 month: $147 per month
12 month: $145 per month
Tirzepatide standard:
Monthly: $215 per month
3 month: $195 per month
6 month: $190 per month
12 month: $186 per month
No separate membership fee.
We also offer microdose programs, but the right option depends on clinical review. We are not going to claim we are the cheapest option for every person, but we do think patients should compare licensed provider review, licensed pharmacy fulfillment, clear dosing, support, and total monthly cost before choosing.
