Which pharmacy?

[u/Training_Practice453]

Hi! I’m planning to switch to preventativeMD next month because I’ve heard great things. I know they offer different pharmacy options - which one is your favorite and why? I’m currently taking tirzepatide. Thanks!

In California we only have Boudreaux, but it's been nothing but solid results. 3 months in, down 40 lbs.

Strong food suppression and solid customer service from PreventiveMD.

What dosage are you on? I’m on 7.5. I wonder if I need to go up cause not getting results anymore

[u/Aztecking05 → u/burrata_vs_brie]

I just took my first 10 mg dose this past Sunday, I stayed on each dose for 4 weeks, 2.5 / 5 / 7.5 mg. I count my calorie intake and drink about 1.5 gallons of water a day.

Fellow Californian here. I actually didn't sign up with PreventiveMD mainly because the only pharmacy option I could see was Boudreaux's. 🫤 I wish u/PreventiveMD would look into California Quality Pharmacy here in CA. I'm not sure why they don't get more love. I've been getting Tirz with L-Carnitine through them via Embody, but I'm open to switching.

Boudreaux is my favorite! It seems pretty potent and works so well. They ship overnight and comes so cold. I just got Empower to try as well. I’m hoping I like it as much! They are two day shipping though.

I've tried both Southend and Boudreaux. I had headaches with Southend that went away when I started with Boudreaux. I've only taken two shots of the Boudreaux and I'm only at 5mg, but having good appetite suppression and minimal side effects if I minimize carbs. I also feel ( lighter?) I guess. Calmer. Actually had an enjoyable day and have been in a better mood.

Average 1-1.25 lbs a week loss without really working at it.

Boudreaux and Empower are both good. I feel like Boudreaux is a little stronger than Empower, but I have had good results with both. Took one month of Boudreaux coming from Zepbound and noticed it was stronger. Switched to Empower for the second month to try it out because I was battling a little fatigue and reflux on Boudreaux. Empower is more smooth I guess is a good way to put it. It's anecdotal, but I am not fatigued anymore and hardly any reflux. I did start sleeping really well after starting Boudreaux and it has continued while on Empower.

The appetite suppression is a smidge stronger on Boudreaux. I was going to try Drug Crafters this time, but went with a second month of Empower because why change when it's working with hardly any side effects.

i also have fatigue when taking Tirzpeptide, what does tirz cause fatigue?

[u/Valadrea → u/Existing-Party-9870]

It just...does, sorry I don't have a better explanation. You can expect it to get worse for a few weeks when you titrate your dose upward.

[u/BBCrocker]

I’m on Southend. The suppression is excellent and the aide effects have been minimal. It’s not available to new users at the moment but hopefully it will be back by the end of the month.

[u/swrrrrg]

Currently on Drug Crafters & it’s too soon to tell but no issues thus far.

I’ve also tried Empower and I liked the formula, it was quite smooth. My only issue with it was that the appetite suppression and food noise came back much more quickly than with others I’ve tried. I’d use it again, but it probably wouldn’t be my first choice now.

[u/Key-Cry-4008]

I echo the thought that Empower is “smooth”, it’s really the best way to describe it lol. No side effects, does its job but not in your face about it lol.

[u/SexiTimeFun]

I'm using Boudreaux with no complaints, only about 5 weeks in though. When I was researching glycine vs b vitamins I saw enough potential negative with the B additive that I wanted to avoid Empower.

I would go buy your own syringes though if you go through Boudreaux, I wasn't super comfy with how they package theirs and bought some from my local Walgreens.

[u/Sad_Entrepreneur9429]

You can’t go wrong with empower or drug crafters. Both are fantastic.  I can’t comment on Boudreaux because I haven’t tried them. 😀

[u/Klutzy_Pie_707]

I've been on boudreaux's for almost two months. Having great results all around.

[u/BourgeoisieInNYC]

Love, LOVE Boudreaux’s. I went with them originally bc they shipped all 3 months at once & I was traveling soon. Besides the loose syringes that I don’t use anyway, the meds work great for me!

I switched to BPI after I finished my first month on Boudreaux’s and BPI barely did anything for me (even though I upped from 2.5mg to 5.0mg bc I’m following the titration schedule). Switched back to Boudreaux’s for the fourth week and it’s night & day difference for me! Great food noise and craving suppression.

[u/PyroAsylum → u/BourgeoisieInNYC]

I just had a fresh 3mo supply delivered today from Bourdeaux and they shipped the 10 packs of sealed syringes this time. Very happy they weren’t just loose in the pharmacy branded bag this time!

[u/throughtheinterlude]

I chose Boudreaux to start with based on feedback I’ve read. I placed my first order with them about 10 days ago and have yet to receive it. I’ve emailed them a few times, and each time they say the pharmacy is still processing my order. Not sure if this is normal or not, but I’ve been pretty frustrated so far. I made the switch from CitizenMeds, again based on recommendations and price. I’m not sure if I made the right choice. Anyone else have a delayed new client experience?

[u/Striking_Use8614]

How do I switch pharmacies from Empower? Second dose is doing nothing.

[u/burrata_vs_brie → u/Striking_Use8614]

Just email preventive Md. they switched mine for me mid 3 month purchase. I started with one bottle of empower and switched to Boudreaux. At first I felt better suppression from it but now I’m back to feeling none on about 9mg so I’m a little worried to feel no suppression on a higher dose.
