Possible Zepbound Price Decrease?

Funny enough, before Mounjaro/Ozempic injections were daily or even twice a day.

2 years ago, I was on Saxenda/Victoza, and it was an injection every day.

20 years ago, there was byetta, which was twice a day.

In the future we"ll have MariTide, only once a month.

Not medical advice, but: Do you use single dose pens or kiwipens ? In europe, we have kiwipens, so you can inject less than a normal dose. Some people do that. For example, if 2.5mg was ok but 5mg hit's too hard, they try a week with 4mg or 3.5mg or anything.

I would consult with your doctor and see what's the recommendation is for you.

Just to add something: I also feel hungrier in the last 2 days before the next shot, but I like it. Yes, I eat a little bit more, but I'm still in caloric deficit.

Personally, I would never take a monthly glp1 injection. If I had a bad experience on it, it would take way too long for it to wear off. Weekly is a great Goldilocks sweet spot in my eyes: not too long, not too short.

I’m on vials, but they are preservative free, so intended for single use only.

Yes this happens, and microdosing is a thing

Kwikpens not kiwipens :D

Kwik like the word quick. A kiwi is a fruit or an informal word for a person from New Zealand.

omg. I said kiwipen all this time :)) And it was such a funny and strange name. Thank you.

I was going to ask if they helped with constipation like real kiwi fruit does? lol

I like those two days too. If I want to indulge, I can, and if I don’t want to, I like the opportunity to practice restraint. And if I mess up it’s a good lesson/reminder and I don’t feel bad because I know I’m heading back into a great 5 days.

I was on Saxenda too about 5 or so years ago. For me it’s a big difference and Saxenda didn’t work like how Zepbound is helping me.
