What Is Microdosing GLP-1?

Microdosing GLP-1 means using a much smaller dose of medications like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide than what’s typically prescribed for weight loss or diabetes. Instead of jumping into higher weekly doses, microdosing takes a slow and steady approach—often starting at less than 10% of a standard dose.

The goal? To give your body time to adapt, reduce side effects, and still support weight loss, appetite regulation, blood sugar balance, and more.

Why Microdose Instead of Going Full Dose?

GLP-1s work by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate hunger and insulin. But for some people, jumping into higher doses too fast can cause nausea, fatigue, or other side effects.

Microdosing allows you to:

  • Ease into treatment gently

  • Minimize or avoid side effects like nausea or fatigue

  • Preserve muscle while supporting fat loss

  • Stay consistent because it’s more sustainable long term

This approach is especially popular among those using GLP-1s for wellness and preventative care rather than for managing diabetes.

Who Benefits Most from Microdosing?

Microdosing can be a great option for:

  • People who are sensitive to medications or prone to side effects

  • Those looking to use GLP-1s for body recomposition (fat loss + muscle maintenance)

  • Individuals who have plateaued or stalled on their current dose

  • People interested in preventative wellness or long-term weight management

  • Anyone wanting to optimize health without the crash or burnout

It’s also perfect for people who want to maintain their weight post-transformation or those just starting a journey and wanting to go slow and steady.
