Standard therapeutic doses for diabetes typically range from 0.5 mg to 2 mg weekly for semaglutide (with Wegovy dosing up to 2.4 mg weekly for obesity), though lower doses are used during initial titration to minimize gastrointestinal side effects
GLP-1 EFFECT ON LIVER FUNCTION AND GLUCOSE METABOLISM IN HUMAN Disruption of lipid metabolic homeostasis has been recognized as a major cause of NAFLD, which is associated with insulin resistance, T2DM, obesity, and cardiovascular disease
Whilst this may result in less robust therapeutic effects, a tolerable lower dose that patients can maintain long-term often proves more beneficial than a higher dose that leads to discontinuation
A structured exit strategydecreasing dose every 2 to 4 weeks over 8 to 12 weeksgives your body time to recalibrate its own GLP-1 receptor sensitivity and ghrelin production
