+1 to Dr.ObesityLA. Especially the point about "The first month are the hardest..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with Amylin co-agonism.
100%. My provider said the same thing about Amylin co-agonism.
OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Amylin co-agonism.
To answer Dr.SportsMedIN: my doctor and I discussed the options and went with brand.
Quick update: I have noticed more improvement since posting this. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏
Slightly tangential to Amylin co-agonism but Dr.SportsMedIN reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?
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.
