I wouldn't trust a compounding pharmacy with making this given some of the truly horrible horror stories I've heard, and I'm on it primarily for type 2 diabetes. This is the minimal dose that keeps my A1c and blood sugar where my internal medicine doctor wants them. The weight loss is a welcome side effect. That said, I have lost about 120 lbs in the last two years, so something I was doing before I got on Mounjaro was working. Mounjaro just helped make it consistent.
tbqh being extremely overweight sucks in a whole lot of ways. While the side effects sound miserable, they will only be temporary. The damage done to my body and metabolism as a result of being this heavy for this long piles up every day, so if I have to suffer like this then I'd rather do that than have a stroke and die in front of my family.
