Semaglutide microdose is a lower-dose formulation of the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide. It’s designed for individuals who want a gentler introduction to GLP-1 therapy, allowing the body to adjust gradually while still supporting appetite regulation and metabolic function.

This approach may be particularly helpful for those who are sensitive to medications or want to minimize potential side effects during the initial weeks of treatment.

The key difference is the starting dose and titration schedule. Semaglutide microdose begins at a lower concentration, allowing for:

• More gradual adjustment to the medication
• Potentially fewer initial side effects
• A gentler introduction to GLP-1 therapy

Your provider will determine the appropriate titration schedule based on your individual response and goals.

Semaglutide microdose may be appropriate for adults who:

• Are sensitive to medications and prefer starting slowly
• Have experienced side effects with standard GLP-1 doses
• Want a more gradual approach to weight management
• Are new to GLP-1 therapy and want to ease into treatment

Eligibility is determined through a full medical evaluation at Good Girl Rx.

Side effects are generally similar to standard semaglutide but may be milder due to the lower starting dose:

• Nausea
• Mild digestive discomfort
• Decreased appetite
• Occasional fatigue

These symptoms often lessen as your body adjusts. Your provider may recommend strategies to minimize discomfort.

Starting semaglutide microdose is simple:

1. Complete a secure online consultation with a licensed provider.
2. Your provider evaluates your health history and determines if microdosing is right for you.
3. If prescribed, your medication ships FREE from a licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy.

Ongoing clinical support is included, along with dose guidance and refill coordination.

Yes. Many patients start with microdosing and transition to standard dosing as their body adjusts. Your provider will guide you through any dose changes based on:

• Your response to treatment
• Your tolerance and comfort level
• Your weight management goals

Always consult your provider before making any changes to your medication.

The timeline varies based on individual response. Most patients remain on a microdose for 4–8 weeks before their provider considers adjustments. Factors that influence timing include:

• How well you tolerate the medication
• Your appetite and hunger response
• Any side effects you experience

Your provider will monitor your progress and recommend dose changes when clinically appropriate.

Yes, though results may be more gradual compared to standard dosing. Many patients on microdose notice:

• Reduced appetite and fewer cravings within the first few weeks
• Gradual changes in eating habits
• Steady, sustainable progress over time

The trade-off for a gentler start is often fewer side effects and better long-term adherence to treatment.

Semaglutide microdose should not be combined with:

• Other GLP-1 agonists
• Tirzepatide or similar dual-agonist medications
• Other injectable weight-loss medications

During your consultation, your provider will review all current medications to ensure there are no interactions. Always disclose your full medication list, including supplements.

Compounded semaglutide, including microdose formulations, is typically not covered by insurance. However, Good Girl Rx offers:

• Transparent cash-pay pricing with no hidden fees
• FSA and HSA eligibility for qualified health expenses
• Itemized receipts for benefits reimbursement submissions

Your provider can discuss all pricing options during your consultation.
