DebRD_ATL — that is really helpful context on Contaminated BAC water. Follow-up question: what labs did your doctor order to monitor this?
I am in a similar situation (just started) and trying to set realistic expectations.
To answer PharmacoVig_BOS's question specifically:
From a clinical standpoint, Contaminated BAC water from is an area where we have good evidence.
The short answer: baseline labs + quarterly monitoring is the standard of care.
The longer answer involves understanding the mechanism of action at the receptor level, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
Thank you AttorneyGrant! This is incredibly helpful. Bookmarking for later. 🙏
Relevant to Contaminated BAC water from — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 213 → 113 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
Slightly tangential to Contaminated BAC water but AttorneyGrant reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
