What is microdose
semaglutide?
Microdose semaglutide is compounded semaglutide given at a lower weekly dose than the standard weight-loss schedule. Some people use it to curb appetite with fewer side effects, to maintain weight after a full-dose program, or to start more gently. Microdosing is an off-label approach.
01
How does
semaglutide work?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 medication. It slows how fast your stomach empties and signals your brain to reduce hunger, so you feel full sooner and think about food less. It also helps the body manage blood sugar. At a microdose, the goal is a milder version of the same effect.
02
How much weight can you
lose on a microdose?
The often-quoted figure of about 15% average weight loss comes from trials of the full 2.4 mg weekly dose over about 68 weeks. Expect smaller, slower changes at a lower dose. A microdose plan works best when the goal is appetite control or holding steady after weight loss.
What is compounded
semaglutide?
Compounded semaglutide is prepared by a licensed compounding pharmacy rather than made as a standard branded product. It uses the same active ingredient, semaglutide. Availability of compounded medicines can change with regulations. A licensed provider will explain whether a microdose plan is appropriate for you.
What are the side effects of
microdose semaglutide?
The side effects are the same as full-dose semaglutide: nausea, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn and a lower appetite. A lower dose may make them milder.
Semaglutide is not for people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN 2. Tell your provider about pancreatitis, gallbladder problems or diabetes medicines.
Microdose vs full-dose
semaglutide
Full-dose semaglutide has the trial results behind it and is the better fit if you want to lose a significant amount of weight. A microdose may suit people who have reached their goal, who did not tolerate higher doses, or who want a gentler start. Your provider will look at your goals and history and recommend a dose.

Frequently asked questions
What counts as a microdose?
It means a weekly dose below the standard weight-loss schedule. Your provider sets the exact amount.
Can I switch to full-dose semaglutide later?

Can I microdose after a full-dose program?
Many people use a lower dose to help keep weight off. Your provider will decide whether that fits you.

People who have reached their goal weight, who had side effects at higher doses, or who want a gentler start. Your provider will recommend a dose based on your goals and history.
Does a microdose have fewer side effects?
