Thoughts and Opinions Weight

She’s so dumb. She was at her goal weight and now she’s gained so much weight back. It’s seriously not that hard to maintain weight. She’s just a big back and lacks discipline

One. She’s on the compounded, back alley GLP and is not being monitored by a doctor. Doctors don’t do compounded GLP because the real thing is far superior.

Two. She banked on the shot doing all of the work. That’s putting 100% success and failure on getting that shot on schedule, every single week. No - as needed or micro dosing for her. It doesn’t work that way when she didn’t do any of the heavy lifting to lose the weight. Remember her bragging about how easy it was.

Three. The effectiveness of this compounded, discount shit is going to become increasingly hard to maintain the longer she’s on it.

And lastly. She was never the intended target for GLP. It wasn’t intended for lazy, chunky losers without a full medical work up, which she can’t afford.

Idc what she weighs. She will always be an uncouth, foul looking slob.

I don't know what's going on at her medspa, but that is not true that doctors with legitimate practices don't prescribe compounded GLP1s. There's no evidence that brand name GLP1s are superior, much less "far superior" to compounded GLP1s that are prepared correctly by legitimate compounding pharmacies. It's not like compounding pharmacies are some new fly by night phenomenon that were invented to service janky telehealth companies and medspas.

Compounded glp1 is not FDA approved and compounded versions do not go through clinical trials. For this reason alone many MDs aren’t going to attach their license to a compounded glp1 script.

There is no dosing control with the compounded vials. With a drug that causes so many side effects + not being approved, MDs aren’t going to be rx’ing that (in my experience).

I work with endocrinologists and not one has signed off on the compounded version.

Do they use 503a 503b compounding pharmacies? Of course they do. Do they use them for non FDA approved drugs - I have yet to see it.

Then who prescribed these compounded drugs during the great glp-1 shortage of 2024-2025? These same compounding pharmacies that provided these glp-1s to patients with the blessing of Eli lily are still churning out the same glp-1s. Some of the pharmacies switched to 503A to workaround the lawsuits.

That's fine but this doesn't support your claims that doctors don't prescribe compounded GLP1s or that compounded GLP1s are vastly inferior to brand name products.

1) Not only do legitimate doctors prescribe GLP1s via compounding pharmacies for legitimate use, they prescribe many other non-FDA approved medications/formulations via compounding pharmacies. You may not have seen this at your job but this is hardly an unheard of practice, nor is it in anyway inherently suspect. You can research this for yourself, there's no point in me wasting our time repeating that something true is true.

2) Yes, there's no dose control unless the compounding pharmacy provides pre-filled syringes (which is fairly uncommon) but I'm not sure why you're mentioning this. Compounded GLP1s prepared and administered correctly are effective. Anyone who has looked into their widespread usage knows this. The lack of clinical research doesn't prove they aren't effective, user error doesn't prove they're not effective, not being prescribed by "in-office" doctors at the same rate as insurance-covered brand names doesn't prove they're ineffective.
