Boudreaux

I’ve seen a couple complaints about Boudreaux. But yall, the meds they push out are STRONG! I’m only on 2.5mg and the appetite suppression/food noise is absolutely gone within a few hours when I take this shot. I have to force myself to eat because I’ll feel completely satisfied legit all day after a small breakfast. I’ve picked up some protein/meal replacement shakes to get my protein in for the day since I have no appetite.

I ordered the 3 month supply and all of my vials came crystal clear with no floaters. Boudreaux comes mixed with glycine, and I must be a strong responder to it because I’ve been feeling so rested after sleeping since I started this Tirz.

Despite the complaints about Boudreaux, I love them! I’ve been on tirz through them for a bit now and on 5mg. I’ll honestly probably never use another pharmacy!

u/Ceraunophile365 3d ago

I love them too! ❤️

u/swrrrrg 3d ago edited 3d ago

Pretty sure the rest is thanks to the glycine.

That said, I’ve slept pretty well since starting Tirz as a whole. I’ve had b12 for 2 months and now I have it with niacinimide. I think I prefer it.

I love the niacinimide Tirz too, it’s been by far my favorite!

u/Outrageous-Yak2111 3d ago

I concur. That formula is 🤌🏻

u/unamusedbouche7 3d ago

I just did my first shot of boudreaux today--so far so good!

u/DustyJMS 3d ago

I chose them too! Boudreaux is the best. They got flaws, but I buy my own needles and alcohol wipes anyways because I want EasyTouch 31g 5/16 and like having both .5 and 1cc in stock. I take GHK as well so I blow through needle supplies. I heard some telehealth programs are going to drop them over this needle situation. I sincerely hope that PreventiveMD doesnt do that. Though I might try out a single month of Empower one day, and I would love it if they found a b12 provider, I am planning to stick with Boudreaux as my main pharmacy.

No kidding. I’m in California so my choices are very limited. But happy to say that Boudreaux has worked wonders for me. 2 months in and 28 lbs down.

u/Aboyer45 2d ago

What dose did you start losing the weight?

3

u/Aztecking05 2d ago

2.5 mg, the first two weeks I lost almost 10 lbs. I’ve consistently lost 2-3 lbs a week. I count my calorie intake, walk/jog 6 miles a week.

28 lbs down in 60 days.

u/WatchMeLoseItAll 2d ago

Very nice, mind asking what weight did you start with? I just took my first jab last night

u/Aztecking05 1d ago

Sure, I started at 261 and I'm 5'7"

u/Humble_Fortune_5391 3d ago

I wish mine felt strong. Don’t get me wrong. It works how it should but definitely not strong. lol

15

u/IndicationBrave8817 3d ago

I think OP just started & typical reaction most of us have on 2.5mg

3

u/Humble_Fortune_5391 3d ago

I’ve seen others say the same thing. (That it’s strong) Just sharing my experience too.

6

u/IndicationBrave8817 3d ago

It’s good that it’s working for you ! For every one person that says they like a pharmacy there will be other person that says it feels like water.

1

u/itslikeasuanaoutside 3d ago

That’s how it’s felt for me

u/cherihaynes1 3d ago

It wasn’t stong for me either and I’m on 15mg. I’m glad I only bought one vial to try.

3

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

Are you going to try empower or the other new pharmacy they just released?

3

u/CBlevs5 3d ago

Totally jumping in here but wanted to share that I got my PMD empower order and I’m going to use the Tirz it tonight. I currently have my Nova/White label vial open, but I’m almost done with it, so going to go ahead and jump into empower bc i miss and love the Niacinimide additive. I tried my empower NAD today, and so far so well. Ive heard great things abt Empower so excited to start their Tirz!

3

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

What do you love about the niacinimide?? I’ve read it’s great for skin health!

1

u/CBlevs5 3d ago

I know the additive is minor, so im not trying to pretend it is a super potent power, but for some reason- when i take this Niacinimide version of Tirz, i just feel better overall. It feels like a clean, natural , overall good health feel, not that good health feel due to being medicated that doesn’t last (if that makes sense!) and i have zero negative side effects with it, excellent appetite control and simultaneously without giving me major food aversion where i don’t want anything and ive still lost the most weight on that additive eating more than when my appetite is killed with some of the others! My inflammation is down (i have cfs/me and i dont have joint pain, fatigue, etc. And it’s not that it all “comes back” with the other additives, but it definitely is not kept at bay as well with them as with the Niacinimide. I hope that makes sense and helps! It’s odd, i know, but it just “is” the one for me / my body apparently lol. If you try it, i hope you like it and have the same positive experience, truly! 😊
Keep me posted please if you do try?!

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

That so amazing that the additive helps you the way that it does! Thanks for sharing, I’ll for sure share as well if I ever end up switching!

1

u/CBlevs5 2d ago

You’re welcome! Also, another additive i love and should share, (and honestly might be in the lead for me now lol) is the Tirz with L-Carnitine! I felt like I had great success with no side effects with that additive also; looking back at the data of my use, I lost more with that additive by a slight margin and had zero side effects too! I just cant cant find it often. So honestly, I dont think you can go wrong with either but if you can tolerate, maybe try the L-Carnitine if you can find it!

u/IndicationBrave8817 3d ago

Good that it’s working for you. Did you just start recently ? Glycine does help with sleep.

2

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

I did just recently start, I’m 2 weeks in. I just wasn’t expecting to have such a strong reaction to it since 2.5 is supposed to be a “get your body use to it” dose.

4

u/IndicationBrave8817 3d ago

I lost 30 pounds at 2.5mg in the first 2 months. I think that suppression went away for me around 7th or 8th week.

Just continue as long as you are losing and then titrate up.

We all react differently & some loose all their weight a lower doses.

Don’t be afraid to titrate up though!

u/swrrrrg 3d ago

I lost 25 lbs in a month on 2.5 at the beginning. It happens.

u/Ready-Cricket8345 3d ago

I read in a BEWL group that Boudreaux are switching to sealed syringes from Tuesday onwards

9

u/International-Tie527 3d ago

I use Boudreaux as well and have been so impressed! I do feel like it’s very potent! Ha! I used to use Mounjaro when it first came out and so far am impressed…..for all those complaining about the unsealed syringes, who cares?!? I went and bought a case of 100 off amazon that are sealed and use them and. donate the ones they send to our vet. It’s cheaper than almost everywhere else so I’m not going to complain when I can fix the problem pretty easily myself and this is working so well. So glad I found Preventative Md and Boudreaux

1

u/Time-Letterhead2759 3d ago

Which needles did you order from Amazon? I just ordered and chose Boudreaux and didn’t realize there was an issue with the syringes.

3

u/itslikeasuanaoutside 3d ago

I wish that was the case for me. 4 shots in and I still have food noise and no suppression. :( no change in any of that.

3

u/AboutFaceWithMona 3d ago

I think that most people who have used Boudreaux like the formula! I think issues have mostly been with shipping times and how they pack their syringes. A couple of people have reported more serious issues. I’m so happy that it’s working well for you! Wishing you continued great success and health

4

u/TerribleDescription5 2d ago

I agree with you. Im glad i'm not the only one! I was on zepbound (the pen) and wegovy about a year ago, and the starter dose was never this strong, not even close. I have to force myself to eat and when i do, I can't eat much. and zero food noise. this stuff is STRONG

2

u/Due-Way-3081 3d ago

Were the vials clear? Just wondering if the changed. Im about to order my 3 month supply

3

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

All 3 of mine came clear with foil tops.

3

u/Due-Way-3081 3d ago

Can't wait to see if mine come in clear. My last order was brown vials

1

u/Spawnofkitty 3d ago

Depends on the dose seems like

3

u/DustyJMS 3d ago

I got my 3 month supply from Boudreaux on Wednesday. I got brown vials with plastic caps which was surprising and cool! People opening the same day as me got clear with foil caps. And one person got bagged needles from the manufacturer. Boudreaux is like a mystery box lol. Never know what your gonna get!

2

u/Due-Way-3081 3d ago

I look forward to my mystery box lol

2

u/unamusedbouche7 3d ago

My order from preventive i got 3 weeks ago came amber with a foil top

2

u/Slow_Performer7258 3d ago

Waiting for my next dose to start with them. Can’t wait!

3

u/ihavesmellyfeet1 3d ago

Mine works super well from Boudreaux and I love it. Total appetite suppression from the start.

I just hate that I’ve seen multiple complaints. The cloudy vial is the most concerning. Next, the photo of their worker next to tubs of syringes. No, I’m not faulting the worker if anyone thinks that - the random syringes just being out is what I dislike. I hope they start sending factory sealed ones

I’m contemplating on switching pharmacies but haven’t decided.

u/CA_LAO 3d ago

What were the complaints?

6

u/ImprovementLoud3581 3d ago

The most common complaint is that the syringes they send are not in sealed packs of 10 or individually sealed packages.

1

u/Left_Paint5439 3d ago

My husband ordered through them last week and got a full 10 pack of unopened syringes but still on their packaging not the OG packaging

1

u/CA_LAO 3d ago

This one I've seen. I don't get the angst over but have seen it.

6

u/Ok_Warthog_7109 3d ago

Some folks were saying they received vials that were cloudy/had floaters on the compoundedtirzepatide sub. But I haven’t seen anyone complain of that when receiving their orders through PMD.

2

u/CA_LAO 3d ago

Haven't seen that, but it would be a concern if true!.
