Dr.SurgeonPGH said:The OASIS programme put 50mg oral in the same territory as 2.4mg injectable — around 15% mean weight loss — but it needed a dose 20 times larger to…
I do not accept that the fasting window is a minor inconvenience. Adherence data on daily orals with timing requirements is consistently worse than weekly injections, and a drug you take imperfectly is a lower dose than the one on the box.
Happy to go further on any of that.
One concrete data point for the thread. If you are going to change something, change one thing and give it long enough to express itself. Four weeks is the usual minimum for anything pharmacological on this board, and two weeks of data has told you almost nothing.

View ResultsFollowing on from KristenIndy — and this may be the naive question:
How much of the oral variability is the SNAC absorption window and how much is dose, because the two get conflated constantly?
OP back with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one.
Follow-up: moving the tablet to the moment I wake, before anything else, was the whole fix. The dose never changed.
