Affordable GLP‑1 Options Explained by a Doctor

“Doctor, I dah pernah ambik Mounjaro sampai 7.5mg — tapi that was 1 month ago. I nak continue that dose.” “Unfortunately, tak boleh… kena start balik 2.5mg.” “Why? I taknak buang duit I.” This is actually a VERY common us doctors see during...
Patients Now Save Money Using Weight‑Loss Injections
So I saw a Threads post yesterday and it was an interesting topic. I've spoken to my Aussie patients about this too. Dulu ingat weight loss injection = mahal. But ramai patients during consults now cakap benda sama: “Dr Dinar, I've actually been...

“Ozempic face” is real… but bukan sebab ubat tu rosakkan muka you. Let’s clear this properly 👇

Doctor‑Founded MyReset Launches Malaysia’s Next‑Gen Weight‑Loss Platform
Feels like I’ve talked about everything — weight loss, GLP-1s, founder diaries… But have not formally introduced our platform. So here goes — MYRESET. — A next-generation digital health platform built for weight loss in Malaysia. Founded by doctors (myself + my co-founder), with real experience in telehealth...
You’re Not Alone: Community Beats Solo Weight‑Loss Journey
Founder Diaries Day 2 - About feeling less alone. Community. Something I feel very strongly about while building MYRESET — treatment alone is not enough. Especially for weight loss. It can be quite scary… injections, side effects, all the unknowns. Yes, doctor support matters. But honestly,...
New FDA‑approved Oral Weight‑loss Pill Expands Patient Options
So… hot off the press: a NEW weight loss PILL just got FDA approved. We’ve had oral (non-injectable) GLP-1s before — but this is one of the first specifically for weight management. When it reaches Malaysia, it could significantly increase demand...

From Weight Loss to Longevity: Medicine Shifts Toward Prevention
It’s interesting how quickly the conversation has shifted. Not long ago, people were hesitant about weight loss injections. Now the question is whether GLP-1s should be used… for longevity. That shift alone is worth paying attention to. Because it reflects something deeper — we’re...
Doctors Must Prioritize Clinical Care Over Profit
I personally think that if you’re a doctor building a business in healthcare, it doesn’t mean you “let go” of clinical practice. If anything, my co-founder and I feel an even greater responsibility to stay at the forefront of weight loss...
WHO Validation Gives Patients Long‑Awaited Treatment Legitimacy
People say this was “obvious”… “macam dah lama je” but if it really was, it wouldn’t take the WHO to make it official. For years, patients have been asking for help — and being met with inconsistent care, shortcuts, or being...
