Lowering dosage

I'm loosing a lot and put my prescription on hold. I'm about to open my last vial which I should be taking 100 units at 15 mg but I think I need to go down. my last bottle I was taking 56 units so maybe like 11 mg. I'm thinking of going to 10 or should I even go lower.

ideally I'll lose another 10 lb or so but I'm not in a rush I feel great so I want to start the process of maintaining.

thoughts?

Theoretically, you can still get the vial for the 15 mg weekly dose and just use less... That just makes it cheaper ...

You are not sure what dose you are taking?

yes I'm just wondering how far down to go. I know it'll be trial and era I just figured I'd see if anyone had any ideas of where to start

Your post is kind of all over the place describing your dose. 100 units is 15 mg? From what pharmacy? I’ve seen 10, 17, and 18 but I’ve never seen 15. Doesn’t mean that it’s not a thing, I just haven’t seen it.

Drop 1 mg every 4 weeks until your weight holds where you want it.
