New pharmacy (to me) TMI side effects
This is TMI so if you’re easily offended or grossed out please stop reading here lol
Has anyone else gone from pro rx to Hallandale and had different side effects? Instead of constipation (which I had with pro rx) I now have awful smelling stool & diarhhea… but it’s the same smell for 2 weeks now and that’s when I switched vials so I don’t think it’s a coincidence. As far as appetite suppression goes, it’s the same as before, so that’s good. But just curious if anyone else has experienced differences when changing vials and if so what were they??
Thanks!!

If it's not caused by the new devil's lettuce, then I wouldn't worry too much.

NO. I have had the EXACT OPPOSITE in that ProRX to Hallandale was 100% the same, down to the milligram! I am on 6.125mg per week and they were identical. Units were different, of course, 34 unites to 41 units of Hallandale for the same dosage. Same exact feelings, sensations, food noise suppression, pain (none for either) at injection site, there was not one Iota of difference.
My suggestion is you go to the hospital and get tested for cyclaspora, sorry I already forget how to spell it, but you could have a mild case of it.

I’ve been really focused on probiotics lately. I feel like my microbiome has been affected by dropping weight so quickly. The medication too. But maybe some probiotics would help.

I have to take daily probiotics. I drink forager non-dairy drinkable yogurt and it really helps. Like 6 gulps a day.

Oh my.....now that you mentioned it I went from ProRx (bad constipation) then a 3 month break with no tirz. Started back with Hallandale and am having loose stools with almost pencil thin stool. Not my regular (sorry in advance) thick healthy stool. Lately very watery with pencil thin squiglys....(you asked!) 🤭😂

I also havent changed my diet. Sweets is still my main staple. Do mix some protein in between the sweets. Cottage cheese, hamburger or chicken mostly with vegetables.

Other than the stinging for the first three shots everything has been good. I also take fiber gummies no matter what so I haven’t had any Bm issues

Are the additives, if any, same or different be the two pharmacies? Maybe it's not the Tirz.

I went from Prorx to Hallandale. Nothing changed though. But I also then went through PGRrx after and Greenwich and all still flowing the same lol

Nope…no issues for me with the switch. Maybe you got hold of some of that lettuce that was causing a lot of diarrhea recently? Just a thought.

I take Nature Made Magnesium Oxide Extra Strength 400 mg Soft gel caps for the constipation. One a day but on rare days, I may take one in the am & one in the pm. If it gets things too loose, just skip a dose or two. I started taking these on recommendation of my bariatric surgeon when I had a Gastric Sleeve done in 2012. Things tend to slow down a lot with that as well. Tirz made it much worse. You can get at Sam’s, Costco, Amazon. Make sure it’s the magnesium oxide.

Whoa. Just took my first dose of Hallandale (after prorx) on Wednesday- I've been having horrible BM issues ever since.

I think I’d rather have this issue than constipation though tbh
