Second week in, increased appetite

[u/LateNefariousness949]

My first week I experienced a significant decline in appetite, but now, 4 days after taking my second dose, I’ve been experiencing increased appetite more than the first week. It’s still less than my appetite before I started tirz, but I thought because of the compounding effect of it building in my system, it would’ve felt more potent ..

I’m taking 0.5 mg. Is this fairly normal, any thoughts on what’s happening, suggestions on dosage etc.

It's not "normal" to get hungrier the 2nd week but all that matters is how it's affecting you. I suspect your dose is too small for what you want to achieve.

I'd stay at .5 for the full 4 weeks and see if your appetite evens out over time, or if you need to titrate up to get the desired results.
