How dosing works
Start low, step up, then maintain
GLP-1 doses rise gradually so your body can adjust and side effects stay manageable. Once you're near your goal, some patients transition to Contrave, an oral medication, to help maintain. Drag through an example plan.

GLP-1 receptor agonists, including semaglutide and tirzepatide, are prescribed for weight management alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. They may cause serious side effects, including a risk of thyroid C-cell tumors. Do not use if you or your family have a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). Contrave carries a boxed warning for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Your provider will review all risks with you.
