It finally got approved. If the mounjaro was just for vanity I might go elsewhere, but it's part of my diabetes health care plan and I don't really want to fuck with that. Actually need to try to get them to switch to Amazon pharmacy, but I'm a little worried with delivery schedule of refrigerated drug.
They probably overnight it like everyone else.

You can make whatever choice you want. It's not up to me what's illegal or not (thats up to the lawyers).

I will explain why its risky, so you don't think im just being a contrarian.

The reason it says in giant capital letters "NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION":

The simple explanation is that 99.8% purity might sound good on paper but it isn't acceptable for human use.

The more accurate explaination is that the final-step manufacturer will control purity and contaminants because they are legally liable to do so. There are also important things to control beyond purity. For example, the dosing mechanism for an injectable or oral system delivers an extremly precise, controlled dose. You cant get that with DIY injection or mixing at home. So your delivered dose is going to vary in a way that is unacceptable.

See 21 CFR part 211:

I'll spare you the math, but a much higher level of product quality is required by the FDA before selling a drug to the user. A quality system is expected to deliver a proveable 99.99966% "known good" acceptance rate for a finished injectable product, and like I mentioned, it accounts for many more potential quality problems beyond drug purity.

If all that sounds expensive, thats because it is.

You're wrong, but I don't care to argue about it. Everyone can read this stuff for themselves and decide for themselves.

With a shit ton of ice/cold packs around it. We used to get one of my daughters meds shipped, but last christmas it got mixed in with a bunch of shit my wife had ordered. By the time i realized, the meds were room temp. Almost had to pay full price (~$4k) to get them replaced.

Two month mark after ablation procedure was Feb 3.

cardiologist thinks my progress is going well.

told me I could slowly start going off anti arrhythmic drugs and yesterday was the last day for them.

next major milestone is going to be sometime around the end of March. I’ll need to wear a heart monitor for two weeks, beginning March 3. If I don’t have any irregularities while wearing it, doctor said I could go off blood thinners and at that time, I’d be tentatively declared cured.

however, the cannot officially discharge me/declare me fixed until December 3, one year after the procedure
Started wearing Take home heart monitor yesterday, it comes off the 17th

I’m hoping for no AFIB episodes during this time period

with luck I can go off blood thinners, which is great since I think there messing with my stomach

Got it all sorted. Was gonna be $70/month but the mounjaro site has a savings card so it's $25. CVS seemed to be the retard in the end.
