If you are microdosing, who prescribes your GLP?

[Anonymous]

Mini dose referring to starting dose or less. 0.25 or less for Ozempic or 2.5 or less for Zepbound.

Would a primary care/internist/Gynecologist do it?

I doubt mine would have, due to my BMI being overweight but not obese. I did an online consult with a nurse.

What company/on-line nurse will send a Rx to pharmacy of your choice?

Most online companies have their own compounding pharmacies.

I went on wegovy hoping to stay at the lowest dose, I was losing weight but steadily. My PCP let me do 2 months at .25, 3 @ .5 before telling me I had to go up to 1 mg (which tbh is where the loss really ramped up)

All that to say I think the fad of micro dosing is bc people just don’t want to say they are actually on a GLP-1.

I microdose tirzepatide (generic Zepbound) and get it from Fifty410.

microdosing is bs.

It is not BS. Minimizes side effects but allows you to maintain weight loss at particular number (rather than continue losing) and makes it very cost effective/cheap!!

I could never get up to the full dose. I felt effects, side effects and weight loss at the smallest dose. So I guess I'm a BS micro-doser?

people are so crazy. What works for you does not necessarily means it works for others and vice versa. I have lost a fair bit of weight on 2.0 mg of tirzepatide. I hope to not have to go up, if it all stays as is.

Yes, this has been my experience. I didn’t plan on microdosing, but it has made it so much easier to maintain the weight that I lost.

OP, I used Gobymeds.com.
