100%. My provider said the same thing about UK Boots vs.
Reading this thread on UK Boots vs hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 269 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
15 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 44 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about UK Boots vs — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
As a healthcare provider, I want to add some clinical context to this discussion on UK Boots vs LloydsPharmacy Wegovy.
Building on what MikeKY_noInsulin said — the evidence base here is well-established. The key publications to reference are from the STEP program[1].
