β€” in my experience this comes down to a few key factors

Gonna push back on this one. Maintenance phase what worked for is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.

Don't get me wrong β€” the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.

Slightly tangential to Maintenance phase what but Dr.EndoEP reminded me β€” has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered β€” I did search first.
