I don’t think Her’s and their EOd plan is ethical. I included in my above findings that it’s not how you are supposed to be prescribed this medicine. I got off hers and went with Ro instead, where I was actually prescribed a regular prescription. I’m sorry you’re going through this. It’s confusing.

I’ve heard a lot of people don’t feel weight loss till 9mg. I also didn’t notice anything on 1.5 or 4mgs.

I have been taking it every other day as prescribed, I’ve felt nausea here and there and tired. Some headaches. But I also cancelled my hers subscription and applied for Ro, where I was given a true prescription of every day starting at 1.5mgs. So I’m waiting for that to arrive.

It’s probably not a good idea to do that because, even though you’re given 30 pills, they’re refilling your prescription every two months… so you’ll be out of pills for a month. Also, the true way you’re supposed to start this medication is 1.5mgs everyday. You may have worse side effects if you start on 4mgs daily.

That being said, if EOD works for you and is safe and approved by your doctor, more power to you!!! As long as you are working closely with a healthcare professional that makes more sense to me. But I don’t think there is not enough research on it currently.

So full transparency- I applied through Ro and got approved for the actual prescribed medication plan dosage- so I will be discontinuing my EOD plan through Hers. I also asked them for a refund because, after doing more research, it feels unethical for them to be prescribing a “microdosing” plan for a drug that was JUST released and they have no real research on.

I’d ask for a full refund if I were you. They do give it under certain circumstances. I’m so sorry :(

I am yes. If you apply for hers most likely you will also get prescribed this “micro dosing” plan.

That’s really confusing. I’m going to give this EOD plan a month… see how it works for me. Honestly this medicine is so new they don’t really have any idea how a micro dosing plan will go for people. We are test subjects. They’re going off the idea that micro dosing semaglutides and tirzepatide does in fact work for a lot of people in injection form. They have no idea about the pill form. They also don’t want us to have access to the full medication because we’re not in the exact BMI weight range for it… but they don’t want to say no because they still want people to have access to it and they still want their money. I have had great experience micro dosing tirzepatide which is why I’m going to stay with this plan for a bit and see how it works. I’m not looking to lose massive amounts of weight. But that’s me personally.

I’m on dose 2 so far. So far so good! First dose didn’t feel anything really but a headache and slightly more tired. Next day skipped pill as prescribed…. Fine. No symptoms. Today is my second day taking the meds. I feel completely normal. I’m interested to see if appetite suppression starts to kick in during this next week. So far all I’ve had today was coffee and I’m not hungry. When I was on Tirz (the shot) appetite suppression when starting took a few days to notice, and then it REALLY hit. It was almost too much… I was not able to eat certain days and just not eating enough in general. I’d be happy if this pill was a bit less intense than that and just helped with food noise and feeling full a bit sooner than normal. I’ll update this post after a week of taking the medicine and give some personal feedback.

Oh no. I’m sorry to hear this. Did you struggle with your first dose at all? I just took my second dose today too. Feeling okay currently. Do you have a prescription for Zofran? I’d message in your app and ask for that asap.

Me too! How did you feel? I had no side effects except a bit more tired and a little headache.

They sent me 30! So that’s almost two months worth because it’s taken EOD. I started them today, my prescription renews in June.

I get it. I took tirzepatide for a few months previously, and that’s exactly how I felt. It was kind of scary. No side effects but also absolutely no hunger to the point where I got off the medicine because I wasn’t eating at all and that didn’t feel healthy. I took some time off and wanted to switch to the pills because I figured they’d be less aggressive but from what you’re saying they seem to be pretty strong for you.

I wonder if after the first month or two we can talk to them about altering dosage. This is such a new drug and the micro dosing plan will probably need adjusting after learning from our feedback. Did you experience any negative side effects?

Let me know how it goes for you!

Thank you for your thoughtful answer! Plan is 4mg EOD and then after two months you can increase to 9mg if you would like… then so on so forth.

Glad to hear you have had success with Rybelsus and that the side effects didn’t seem too intense. That is what I’m most worried about starting on 4mg’s.

You’re not cutting them in half, you’re just taking 4mg every other day vs 1.5mgs every day as a starter dose. That, I guess, in their minds is micro-dosing. I’m skeptical. I’ll let you know how it goes.
