microdosing semaglutide study Why I Started Despite Being a Healthy Runner A new fad: microdosing Ozempic.

Caiazzo, R

Brand-name drugs used to treat myriad conditions, from diabetes to heart disease, cost more in the US, because the Medicare program historically was prohibited from negotiating drug prices

Compounded semaglutide at $199/month provides the best combination of effectiveness and affordability, producing 10-15% average weight loss at 85% less cost than brand-name Wegovy ($1,349/month)

This improvement was accompanied by an increase in DAT binding on DaTscan imaging, suggesting a potential neuroprotective effect and enhancement of dopaminergic function
