Best provider for maintenance?

I’ve done really well on Mounjaro and am just half a stone from my goal of a BMI of 24. But what now? What are people doing about maintaining please? If I was a millionaire I’d stay on it forever but I’m not. Ideally I’d like the option to take it as and when I need it so eg if I gain half a stone, do it for a month. Does any provider give this option? Or do they offer a low dose for less money? Will talk to my provider but keen to see what other people are doing.

@KrankyKumquat I too missed all the drama until I read Hira’s reply! I think one of the main issues people had (other than the fact Oushk had gone back on their public statements that they would never use referral codes!) was that the ‘influencer’ code was for £25 off rather than the £22 offer at the moment. Well that along with the fact the moronic ‘influencer’ posted a video full of mistakes (wish I’d seen it!!😂)

The code did work initially (I tried it!) but was pulled some time later and now says it’s invalid 😜

They just need to tread carefully as the somewhat maniacal adoration they have inspired could turn to the opposite all too easily!

@IReallyNeedThisToWork The video was a complete shit show.

  • No priming new pen, or even mention of why you might want to
  • Said swab was for belly, didn't bother sanitising red plug
  • Turned to 1, then put needle on, making sure to rub her fingers all over it for good luck
  • Finishing up with 'just chuck the needle in the bin'

😅🙄

I think they need to take care with seeming unprofessional, good to be accessible / friendly etc but not at the expense of losing that.

Edited

😂 Thanks for the breakdown! I was there when she posted it to the FB group and I didn't feel like adding to her views, but I did see from comments that she hadn't used the wipe properly or primed. She then defended herself saying she'd primed off camera (why? If you're posting a video about 'how to inject', why not do it properly?)

I was sad that I went out and forgot about it, because when I remembered earlier today it was all gone.

As for the OP question: Oushk has been very proactive about posting about maintenance, which is refreshing. I've heard a lot of positive things from customers from Cloud Pharmacy, as well.

@KrankyKumquat thank you! So wish I’d been there😂 Do love a bit of drama and there some queens in that group!

@AnitaLoos apologies for the derailing there! Have read good things about Cloud on Reddit and the Family Chemist offers the option to stay on their books for a year to allow you to restart.
