Restarting Rapamycin after an illness break

How does everyone restart after a month break? Do youall ramp up or go straight to your normal dose?

It probably depends on the person. I’ve had very few bothersome side effects while on rapamycin (rare, occasional rashes). And I’ve tested higher levels with no issues (e.g. effectively 25mg+ in a single dose). I’ve found that I can ramp very quickly back up to my past dose level with no side effects.

Other people here seem to report great sensitivity to rapamycin levels, where slight adjustments can cause significant changes in their side effect profile.

I suspect that if in the past you haven’t experienced much of an issue as you ramp up, or modify dosing levels, then you can probably ramp back up more quickly. If you’ve shown more sensitivity to rapamycin levels, perhaps better to be slow to ramp up.

When I have a month or less break, I just go back to my regular dose without any problems. It seems my body has adjusted to regular Rapamycin doses.
