Wegovy builds up in your system every week when you’re titrating up
Post Body
You take each dose for 4 weeks not to “get your body used to it” but to slowly build up the amount in your system. The half life of the drug is 1 week which means after 1 week, half is still there! So each week your blood levels increase even at the same dose. Which is why short cutting the titration schedule is likely to get you sick.
Example using 1 mg (math easier):
Week 1: 1mg
Week 2: 0.5mg 1mg=1.5mg
Week 3: 0.75mg 1mg=1.75mg
Week 4: 0.88mg 1mg=1.88mg
Ok, math lesson over, carry on. 🤓
