What dosage to start after 6 week pause

#1

I have not taken Rapamycin for 6 weeks. I had worked my way up to 5mg with no side affects After a pause does one start immediately on 5 mg or start say at 2mg and work back up to original dose after 2 weeks. Suggestions from users welcome

FWIW

I would start low and work my way back up.

You can probably start with 5mg right away but ultimately it doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things if you go for 5mg right away or build up again

Almost 3 years ago I just read what Alan Green was recommending and shot for the middle of the range and started. I didn’t know any better at the time and didn’t notice any problems at all. I think I started at 6mg/2weeks.

Now I’m taking more like 16.

After cycling on and off a number of times with rapamycin I’ve found my body to be much more resilient in terms of ramping up to target dosing. So, I’ve found I can easily do 4mg starting from cold, then up to 8mg the following week with no issues. Your mileage may vary…
