Hi here, I've been using Tirz for about 3 months now and was thinking of switching from a weekly dose to a 5 day dose since the half life is 5 days.
My hope is that this week curb some of the food noise I've started to have at the end of the week while remaining on my low dose. I'm aware that this will up the amount I take per month.
I think I'll give it a try and if it doesn't work I'll just titrate up a bit like normal. I'm at the baby dosages still so I have room to do that.
Had anybody else tried this or something similar?
Hi,
I have also been on tirzepatide since July and am currently taking a 5 mg dose (Mon–Sun). I start to get hungry on Fri–Sun as well, though I try to eat healthy.
There are more knowledgeable people here who will share more and better opinions, and I am not too sure about the 5-day dose protocol. However, since I am in a somewhat similar situation as you, here are the options I am considering (you could try the first two and see what works best):
Option #1: Simple and straightforward—just increase to the next dose of tirzepatide.
Option #2: Split the dose. For example, at 5 mg, take 2.5 mg on Monday and the remaining 2.5 mg on Thursday (or 3 mg on Monday and 2 mg on Thursday).
Option #3: I am personally debating starting 4 mg of tirzepatide and 1 mg of retatrutide starting this monday to kill the trying reta itch. 
Let us know whatever works for you. Thanks
