GLP-1 Weekly Dosing Guidelines

Progressive dosing for optimal results and minimal side effects

To help you achieve steady, sustainable weight loss while minimizing side effects, we follow a gradual titration schedule. Our goal is to help you lose 1–2 pounds per week by increasing your dose safely over time.


Dosing Schedule Example

(Your provider may adjust this based on your response)

  • Week 1: 10 units

  • Week 2: 20 units

  • Week 3: 25 units

  • Week 4: 30 units

  • Week 5: 35 units

  • … and so on, increasing by 5 units weekly

  • Typical max dose range: 50–80 units (based on individual needs & tolerance)


Why We Increase Slowly

  • Reduces side effects like nausea, fatigue, and GI discomfort

  • Allows your metabolism to adjust for long-term success

  • Lets us fine-tune your dose based on how your body responds

  • Prevents weight loss plateaus by steadily increasing fat burn


Important Reminders

  • Always take your injection on the same day each week

  • Stay hydrated and prioritize protein intake

  • Contact us if you experience any side effects or need a dose adjustment

  • Follow-up visits help us track progress and keep you feeling your best
