- 20–40%
- 'Slightly less tired in afternoons' or no noticeable change
- Too early for meaningful evaluation; effects build gradually
- Days 4–7
- Moderate and consistent
- 60–75%
- 'More focused, less caffeine needed, better task initiation'
- Norepinephrine reuptake inhibition becoming clinically significant
- Days 8–14
- Strong and sustained
- 95–100%
- 'Effortless productivity, mental clarity lasts 8+ hours'
- Full therapeutic effect; steady-state concentration achieved
- Weeks 3–8
- Stable plateau
- 100%
- 'New baseline. Consistent energy without spikes or crashes'
- Habituation to effect; objective performance remains elevated
- Post-Discontinuation (Week 1)
- Gradual decline
- 50% (half-life = 8 days)
- 'Energy still present but noticeably lower than peak'
- Washout begins; reuptake transporters gradually resume normal activity
- Post-Discontinuation (Week 2–3)
- Return to baseline
- <10%
- 'Back to pre-tesofensine energy levels'
- Complete clearance; no residual reuptake inhibition
