Expected approval timeline for retatrutide — anyone have experience?

One thing that is still open after Dr.CardioMD’s answer:

How long did you give it before you decided it was working?

If two explanations both fit, the useful question is which one predicts something the other does not.

Pushing back on amy_econ_NJ here. Pushing back on the consensus forming here. Consistency is not the same as correctness, and a board that agrees with itself quickly is usually agreeing with the first person who sounded certain.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.

Fair, and it stops being fair at the extremes. The middle of the range is well understood; the ends are where the honest answer is that nobody knows.

Thank you — that is the clearest version of this I have read, and I have read a lot of them. Sending this to two other people who asked me the same thing last week.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. It helps to say which part of this you are uncertain about. A precise question gets a precise answer; a general one gets everybody’s favourite anecdote.
