Slightly tangential to Any EU members finding it but sarah.morrison reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?

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.

OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Any EU members finding it.

To answer jason_sac26: my doctor and I discussed the options and went with brand.

Quick update: I have noticed more improvement since posting this. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏

Want to share my personal experience related to Any EU members finding it since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 275 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 14 months later: I am down 60 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Any EU members aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.

FranDenver — that is really helpful context on Any EU members finding it. Follow-up question: did you experience any side effects during this phase?

I am in a similar situation (about to start) and trying to set realistic expectations.
