Compounded tirzepatide formulation challenges — looking for input

Dose-response modeling for tirzepatide: Emax model fitting to the STEP/SURMOUNT dose-finding data shows: Semaglutide: ED50 ≈ 0.6mg, Emax ≈ -18%, Hill…

Can confirm the pattern Dr.SleepRoch describes. Worth adding the genuine exception, because it is real and narrow: a change made for an identified patient where the prescriber determines it produces a significant clinical difference for that patient. A grid of fixed doses offered to everybody is not that, whatever the intake form says.

Thank you for spelling out the reasoning rather than just the conclusion. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Worth answering the question that was asked rather than the one behind it. The narrow version usually has an answer; the broad version usually does not, and answering the broad one is how a thread stops being useful.

Second this. The detail I would add is minor and it is already implied above.

Moderator note: leaving this open. It is being argued well and the disagreement is the useful part.
