GLP-1 Microdose Titration Planner

People who discuss low-dose GLP-1 often talk about ramping slowly — holding a small dose for a few weeks, then stepping up. This tool lays that idea out as a plain week-by-week table so you can see exactly what a given starting dose, step size, and cadence would imply. It is a scheduling sketch, not a protocol or a dose recommendation.

Read before you use this

This is an educational planning aid, not medical advice, and not a protocol or a recommendation to titrate. Intentional GLP-1 microdosing is off-label and unproven — there are no dedicated randomized trials of sub-therapeutic GLP-1 dosing, and no established “correct” microdose ramp. The schedule this tool draws is just the arithmetic of the numbers you type in; it knows nothing about you, your medication, your tolerance, or your side effects. Any decision to start, hold, step up, or stop a dose must be directed and supervised by a licensed clinician. Never self-prescribe or adjust a dose on your own. Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved products. Use this only to prepare questions for your prescriber — then verify everything against their guidance and the product label.

How it is built. The dose starts at your starting microdose and increases by the step size every N weeks, never exceeding the ceiling; once it reaches the ceiling it is held flat for the rest of the plan. Dose at step k = min(ceiling, start + k × step), where step k covers weeks k·N + 1 through (k+1)·N. Worked example: start 250, step 250, every 4 weeks, ceiling 1000 → 250 (wk 1–4), 500 (wk 5–8), 750 (wk 9–12), 1000 (wk 13–16). This is a scheduling sketch only — it has no idea whether any of these numbers are right for you, and is not a recommendation to ramp.

Understand the context first

A schedule is the easy part. Whether ramping a low GLP-1 dose is appropriate, safe, or worth doing at all is the part that actually matters — read these before you plan anything:

This planner is informational and not medical advice. It builds a schedule from the numbers you enter and does not account for your individual health, the specific product, injection technique, tolerance, side effects, or clinical appropriateness. GLP-1 medications are available by prescription after clinician review; compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved, and intentional microdosing is off-label with no dedicated clinical trials.
