Slightly tangential to 50+ FDA warning letters but sarah_TO reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?
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 — I did search first.
Thanks for sharing this, sarah_TO. A few questions about your 50+ FDA warning experience:
- What dose did you start at?
- How long before you noticed side effects improving?
- Did your provider have any specific recommendations about 50+ FDA warning?
I am in a similar boat and trying to learn from others' experiences before my next appointment.
