How shortages have affected compounding permissions Replied, post #67 · Access › Shortages · 25 Jul 2026 · 2 likes Shortages sits at the boundary between what this community can usefully discuss and what it cannot, and I think it falls on the discussable side, narrowly.
Follow-up: Prior authorisation: what the criteria usually require Replied, post #91 · Access › Insurance & coverage · 23 Jul 2026 · 3 likes Since Prior authorisation keeps coming up, it should probably be a maintained page rather than a recurring thread. I am happy to draft it if someone with more direct…
NHS criteria and how they are applied in practice Replied, post #27 · Regional › UK & Ireland · 12 Jul 2026 · 11 likes I had written a reply contradicting post #23 and deleted it. Here is what survived. Nothing in this subcategory is medical or legal advice, and prescribers reading here…
What is genuinely unknown about long-term amylin agonism Replied, post #17 · Compounds › Cagrilintide & amylin analogues · 9 Jul 2026 · 10 likes Nothing to add, except that this is the answer I would give if asked.
Micro-titration: a disputed topic, argued properly Replied, post #94 · Practice › Dosing & titration · 24 Jun 2026 · 25 likes Helpful, and short, which on this subject is harder than long.
Micronutrient adequacy at low total intake Replied, post #21 · Nutrition & Training › Protein & intake · 7 Jun 2026 · 0 likes Renal considerations around higher protein intake apply to people with existing renal impairment and are frequently generalised beyond that population. I have no…
0.3 mL versus 0.5 mL versus 1 mL barrels: resolution matters Replied, post #64 · Devices › Syringes & needles · 6 Jun 2026 · 32 likes This follows post #61 rather than contradicting it. Fixed versus detachable needles: insulin syringes usually have fixed needles (no dead volume loss to the hub).…
How to disagree with an answer you were given, well Replied, post #6 · Start Here › How to Ask · 5 Jun 2026 · 14 likes This settles it for me, at least until somebody posts a reason it should not.
Injecting into an area that has become firm: why not to Replied, post #12 · Practice › Administration · 4 Jun 2026 · 1 like Answering the question post #8 raises rather than the one it answers. A site rotation scheme that actually works: abdomen, outer thigh, back of arm, outer hip. Rotate…
A reconstituted vial's beyond-use date and the reasoning behind common figures Replied, post #37 · Practice › Storage & stability · 4 Jun 2026 · 1 like Everything in post #35 holds. The case it does not cover is the one I have. Light protection is easy and cheap. The original carton exists for a reason and a vial…
Revisiting: Journal club: SURMOUNT-1, read without the press release Replied, post #51 · Evidence › Journal club · 30 May 2026 · 3 likes The confident answers on SURMOUNT-1 and the well-sourced answers are not the same answers, which is the most useful thing I have learned reading this category.
Micro-titration: a disputed topic, argued properly Replied, post #75 · Practice › Dosing & titration · 16 May 2026 · 20 likes Building on post #72 rather than restating it. I would rather this thread reach "we do not know" about micro-titration than reach a confident answer that nobody can…
