Patients who take their injection on the same day each week report more predictable appetite suppression and fewer side effects than those who vary their timing by several days
Importantly, GHK-Cus effect on circulation may benefit the scalp
As an example, in the DURATION-8 study, while combination therapy produced greater HbA1c and body weight reductions, the effect was less than additive compared to the sum of individual drug effects, most likely because the efficacy of glucose-lowering therapies can depend on baseline glycaemic control [24]

GLP-1 medications like Wegovy help those hormones do their job more effectively, improving blood sugar and supporting weight loss
The consequences of muscle mass loss during GLP-1-induced weight loss include reduced resting metabolic rate making weight regain more likely if the medication is stopped reduced functional strength and physical capacity, increased falls risk in older adults, reduced bone density, and the loss of the metabolic benefits that muscle tissue provides including improved insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake
