semaglutide side effects and dosing?

[Vloise]

I’m 260 lbs and my goal is to lose about 25 lbs.
I’m interested in trying semaglutide for the first time.
It seems like a lot of people are using it with success.
I’ve read that there are some side effects to watch out for especially with the stomach. I read about a guy who said he had a lot of heartburn on it, and another guy said he got diarrhea.
Are these common side effects and you think that I should start at a lower dose? Maybe only at 10 mg a week for the first week.?

Stomach can happen but if you start at the right dose and follow the proper dosing schedule these are minimal. Most issues are caused by eating high fat foods.
I would highly suggest you go on the ozempic site and look at the dosing protocol. You should be starting stepping 2.5mg/week. And titrating up every four weeks as needed. You take 10mg right off the bat your asking for issues.

.25mg per week for 4 weeks then double to .5mg for 4 weeks then double again to 1mg for 4 weeks. If you can handle that you can bump it up to 2mg per week. Its a long process. Dont mess it up or you will be sick. Ive done this 3 times now and am in the middle of a run and doing .5mg right now.

.25mgs for the whole week for semaglutide then you can move up after

switch to retatrutide if you get sides.

[ROIDDERS]

keep the dose mild and you should be okay

 

[chesty]

people get in trouble with it because they run too high of a dose

 

[Ulter]

use .25mgs and keep the dose mild

 

[e2]

you should stop using it if it causes these types of side effects

 

[2Thick]

there are other peptides that work just as good if not better

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

how about trying tirzepatide?

 

[Wootoom]

i think retatrutide has a good reputation

 

[JasonPriest]

GLP1 can have sides, that pretty much standard
