First I want to say very clearly that I am not asking for medical advice, I am asking for consensus.

I am switching from Semaglutide to Tirzepatide. I was on the max dose for Sema and they put me on the middle dose for Tirz. Everything I’ve read says I should start with the smallest dose and titrate up but she’s pretty insistent I start with this middle dose.

I’m going to listen to my doctor obviously, but did anyone else experience this when switching? Everyone in my irl never hit the max on Sema before they switched so I’m just curious. Mainly about the side effects and if this is pretty consistent.
