> Just wondering, I'm 6'8 and weigh about 275 lbs, does anyone know if a bigger heavier person requires higher doses of meds? I'll be starting parnate and would like to know. I'm actually lighter now than I was in the early 90's when I played College Football-my playing weight was 315, but I was lifting a lot of weights back then...not so much anymore.. :)

Hi Tyler.
I can tell you that a smaller person doesn't have to take a smaller dosage. I'm just under 5 feet tall and under 100 pounds and I was taking 80-100 mg of Parnate.
My guess is that weight isn't a factor when it comes to dosage.
