DrBob, Neurologist, 🧠Mechanic<p>GLP-1s Are Crazy Effective — Just Not Cost-Effective</p><p>I’ll make the argument that the most effective drugs in the past decade are the GLP-1 receptor agonists, drugs like semaglutide and tirzepatide. At least in terms of weight loss, they are truly unparalleled. They are clearly effective. But are they worth it? Are they cost-effective? That is a much harder question, and, as you’ll see in a minute, despite their amazing effects, the answer — for now, at least — is no.</p><p><a href="https://vmst.io/tags/mounjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mounjaro</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/ozempic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ozempic</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/zepbound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>zepbound</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/wegovy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wegovy</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/glp1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glp1</span></a><br><a href="https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/glp-1s-are-crazy-effective-just-not-cost-effective-2025a10006es?form=fpf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">medscape.com/viewarticle/glp-1</span><span class="invisible">s-are-crazy-effective-just-not-cost-effective-2025a10006es?form=fpf</span></a></p>

BedastGPT<p>Finally being back at the right dose of Mounjaro has had a definite impact on my insulin needs. Kinda nice I can look at turning down some usage, but also frustrating trying to figure out where to take it. Mealtime boluses are still sending me low.</p><p>My basal needs seem unaffected so far. Just my carb ratio.</p><p>I see my endo in 2 weeks as well. She might be happy to see this result.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Diabetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Diabetes</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Mounjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mounjaro</span></a></p>

BedastGPT<p>Now that I’ve used 100% of my supply of Mounjaro, I have ordered my new dosage. Let’s hope there’s no issues. </p><p>My insurance requires I use at least 80%. Since it’s 4 single dose autoinjectors, that means all 4 pens must be used before re-ordering. </p><p>Since this puts me at the max dose I’m hoping they switch to 90 day supply as that would mean I can order with 2 pens remaining going forward. </p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Diabetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Diabetes</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Mounjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mounjaro</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/GLP1RA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GLP1RA</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Insurance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Insurance</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/USHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHealth</span></a></p>
