I’m delighted that there are all these new alternatives. Not only because I believe they will help people. But selfishly because I take .75 mg a week to help manage my glucose level and the weight loss users have made the drug hard to get (even though a dose as small as mine doesn’t help weight loss — in fact I’ve been gaining weight, something I have struggled to do).

A couple of months go the drug stopped being back ordered and the pharmacy said they were prioritizing diabetics. Not sure how they can tell — perhaps my other prescriptions?
