Anyone know if I need to taper off MK-677 when I decide to discontinue it? I’ve been on 5 weeks and am going to stop it after 8 weeks. I’m at 25mg a day. Thanks in advance.
How do you feel on the MK-677? Any significant improvements?Anyone know if I need to taper off MK-677 when I decide to discontinue it? I’ve been on 5 weeks and am going to stop it after 8 weeks. I’m at 25mg a day. Thanks in advance.
Got it. Thanks for the info.Not really. That’s why I’m giving it a few more weeks. It’s making me ridiculously hungry all of the time which is becoming extremely annoying.
That’s what it’s supposed to do exactly. So why take it if you don’t want it doing what it’s meant to do?Not really. That’s why I’m giving it a few more weeks. It’s making me ridiculously hungry all of the time which is becoming extremely annoying.
How intermittently and at what dose are these recommendations? Also, I thought MK-677 was still in trials. Is that no Longer the case?Note that you're keeping your pituitary pegged on high-HGH which is totally un-natural and one of the reasons it was never approved. I would think you would want to come off as quickly as possible. The Doctors who recommend similar compounds suggest only using them intermittently.
