Semaglutide Microdose
A steady low GLP-1 dose (typically 0.25 or 0.5 mg, on a schedule your provider sets) for a gentler start, for maintenance, or when higher doses haven't suited you, prescribed by a provider licensed in your state and delivered to your door.
Compounded drugs are not approved or evaluated for safety, effectiveness, or quality by the FDA. Prescription required.

A low dose, held steady.
A gentler start with fewer side effects, or a steady maintenance dose once you've reached a level that works, without pushing higher. That's what microdosing gives you: semaglutide held at a lower dose than the standard schedule, typically 0.25 to 0.5 mg, for the same GLP-1 effect with less intensity. Your provider sets the dose and how often you take it.

These are two typical microdose levels. Your provider determines which is appropriate for you, and actual dosing may vary at their discretion.
There is no titration ladder on a microdose plan; dosing and frequency are personalized to each patient and may differ from what's shown here.
Your clinician typically sets you at 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg and keeps you there, and decides how often you take it, which is often weekly but can differ. Microdosing is a steady low dose, not a climb.
Microdose vs. standard semaglutide, side by side.
Same medication, same clinician, same pharmacy. The difference is the dose and how it changes over time.
