Microdose GLP-1
A lower weekly GLP-1 dose for people who want a gentler approach.
A microdose GLP-1 plan uses a low weekly dose of semaglutide (0.2 mg) or tirzepatide (1.5 mg), lower than standard weight-loss doses. Research on low-dose use is limited, so a licensed provider decides whether it fits your goals and history; it starts at $159 a month.
| Option | Monthly | Start |
|---|---|---|
| Microdose semaglutide, 0.2 mg weekly | $159 | Start |
| Microdose tirzepatide, 1.5 mg weekly | $199 | Start |

Important safety information
- The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation and stomach pain, most often when starting or increasing the dose.
- Do not use it if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer, or if you have multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2). Tell your provider about any neck lump, trouble swallowing or hoarseness.
- Serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, low blood sugar (especially with insulin or sulfonylureas), kidney problems from dehydration and allergic reactions. Severe stomach pain that does not go away needs urgent care.
- Not for use during pregnancy or while trying to conceive. Tell your provider before any surgery or procedure with anesthesia.
- Compounded dosing is measured differently from brand-name pens. Follow the dose and volume on your pharmacy label exactly; dosing errors are the most common problem the FDA reports with compounded GLP-1s.
- Compounded medications are prepared by a state-licensed 503A pharmacy for an individual patient. They are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not review their safety, effectiveness or quality before they are dispensed.
- Injections go under the skin with a small needle, following the written directions that come with your prescription. Common effects include redness, stinging or a small bump where you inject. Never share or reuse needles, and use a sharps container.
Prescription only. A licensed provider reviews your health history in an online visit and decides whether this program is appropriate for you. Tell your provider about every medication, supplement, allergy and condition, and whether you are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding. If you have a severe reaction, trouble breathing, chest pain or swelling of the face or throat, call 911.
