MJ Maintenance / Supplier / Advice

[Summerbay23]

I've been on MJ for 18 months and my BMI is currently 26.6. Currently on 10mg (from a 12.5 pen).

I'm thinking I really need to move to a maintenance supplier soon, is Swift Doctor still recommended or are there others to consider?

Ideally it would be good to have a supplier who will allow an 8 week gap in ordering. I'm also thinking about possibly moving over to tablets as I'm finding the cost pretty difficult to justify now.

Looking on the monji comparison site Swift Doctor seem pretty expensive. I'm not sure at what stage to make the switch. It's so difficult, I think I'd like to stay on MJ until after Christmas and then decide in the new year.

(I'm sure this has been discussed before but I have trawled through the threads and can't find anything very recent). Thanks.

I've recently moved away from Swift Doctor to Medicine Market Place due to cost. I am still just about losing weight after 2 years plus on Mounjaro and so don't feel like that I am quite in the maintenance phase. Having to order every 35 days for MMP is annoying but I can deal with it given the price difference, Swift are just too expensive for me now.

Were you thinking of the Foundayo tablets or swapping to Wegovy?

@SilenceInside I was thinking of Foundayo, just because I don't want to have to limit when to take it (I drink loads of water overnight so not sure I would ever easily have a completely empty stomach).

I am also thinking about trying Foundayo when I am definitely in the maintenance phase. It's hard to know when to make that decision! My BMI is about 25 atm and I am really finding it hard to get significantly below that and stay there.

Swift Doctor were fine about leaving it till almost 8 weeks between orders. I have just been on to my account and they have changed since I last ordered with them. You can sign up for a subscription of 2, 6 or 12 pens and that reduces the price you pay. It makes a 12.5mg pen £239 instead of £265, so still more expensive than MMP but not quite as bad. It's not clear but I would suspect that a subscription means being charged every 4 weeks although it does say you can delay the next order but you need to contact them to do so.

Yes, I'm also struggling to get much below bmi 26 now. In theory I probably need to increase my dose but just can't afford to keep paying.
