⊖ Tirzepatide (cost)

Explanation: This patient is currently on Zyrtec and PEA for their MCAS. The PEA made their pain and sleep better. They did not notice any difference with the Zyrtec. They stopped Claritin because it caused too much drowsiness. They plan to start Neuroprotek soon. They will consider Cromolyn in the future. They are not interested in trying Tirzepatide because they cannot afford it.
