Before you begin

Risk

Nausea synergistic with GLP-1. These pass with discipline. They do not pass with bravado.

Source · PEPVERA editorial

Discipline

10 weeks paired ramp.

Source · PEPVERA editorial

Wellness

Hydrate. Eat protein. Sleep eight. Hold a dose for at least two weeks before ascending.

Anti-patterns

  • · Do not pair with stimulants late in the day.
  • · Do not break the cycle without a planned taper.
  • · Do not exceed the dose to chase a deeper sleep response.

Crisis

If the ramp triggers severe anxiety, anhedonia, or persistent gastrointestinal disturbance, stop. Resume after two weeks at half the prior dose. The discipline is the slow climb.
