Wegovy Doses Explained: The Titration Schedule and What to Expect

Wegovy (semaglutide) is prescribed at a starting dose of 0.25 mg once weekly, with the dose gradually increased over several months under a prescriber's guidance — the full maintenance dose is 2.4 mg weekly. Every step of that titration schedule is decided by your prescriber or doctor, not self-managed, and the pace can vary depending on how you tolerate the medicine.

Wegovy Doses Explained: The Titration Schedule and What to Expect

What Are the Doses of Wegovy, and How Does Titration Work?

Wegovy is available in five dose strengths: 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 1.7 mg, and 2.4 mg. According to the electronic Medicines Compendium (eMC), the typical titration schedule moves through these strengths in order over approximately 16 weeks, with each dose held for around four weeks before increasing — though your prescriber may adjust that timeline based on your individual response and tolerability.

The doses of Wegovy in order

  • 0.25 mg — starting dose, given for the first four weeks
  • 0.5 mg — introduced after the initial period
  • 1 mg — mid-titration stage
  • 1.7 mg — penultimate step
  • 2.4 mg — maintenance dose (the intended long-term strength for most people)

The staged approach exists because it helps the body adjust gradually, which many people find reduces the intensity of gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea or indigestion — though experiences vary widely. Some people remain at an intermediate dose if their prescriber considers that appropriate for them.

Who decides when to move to the next dose?

Your prescriber or doctor makes all dose decisions. Moving up the schedule too quickly, or staying at a lower dose longer than planned, are clinical judgements based on your health, tolerability, and progress — they are not something to adjust independently. If you have questions about where you are in your titration, bring them to your next appointment or contact your healthcare team.

If you are curious how Wegovy's dose structure compares to another injectable medicine, you may find it useful to read about how Mounjaro doses are structured or explore a broader look at Wegovy dosing guidance for more context.

Tracking Your Wegovy Doses with GLP Trackr

Keeping an accurate record of every dose you take is one of the most practical things you can do on a weekly injection schedule — and it is exactly what GLP Trackr is built for.

The app's dose logging feature lets you record each injection as you take it: the date, the dose strength, and the time. Over weeks and months, this creates a clear timeline of your titration journey that you can review at a glance and bring to your prescriber appointments as a reliable record.

Because Wegovy is taken once weekly, a missed or delayed dose can be easy to lose track of — especially when life is busy. GLP Trackr's dose reminders send a gentle nudge on your scheduled injection day so your weekly routine stays consistent without you having to rely on memory alone.

If you ever realise you may have taken a dose at the wrong time or are uncertain whether you took it, log it in the app and contact your prescriber or doctor before taking any further action. Any decision about a missed, delayed, or double dose belongs with your healthcare professional — the app helps you record what happened so that conversation is clear and accurate. Never take a second dose without explicit guidance from your prescriber.

For a broader look at how GLP Trackr supports people on injectable weight-management medicines, visit the GLP Trackr hub. You can also compare how dose tracking works across medicines by reading about Mounjaro dose stages.

Frequently asked questions.

Wegovy is typically titrated through five strengths in order: 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 1.7 mg, and 2.4 mg. Each step is usually held for around four weeks, but the exact schedule is set and managed by your prescriber or doctor based on your individual response.

The maintenance dose of Wegovy is 2.4 mg once weekly. This is the intended long-term dose for most people, reached after a gradual titration. Whether you stay at this dose or a lower one is a decision made by your prescriber based on your tolerability and health.

Contact your prescriber or doctor promptly. Do not take any further action or adjust your schedule without their guidance. Logging the incident in GLP Trackr can help you provide an accurate record of exactly what happened when you speak to your healthcare professional.

Your prescriber or doctor decides your Wegovy dose based on your individual health, tolerability, and response to each stage of titration. Dose increases are not self-managed. If you have concerns about your current dose, raise them directly with your healthcare professional.

GLP Trackr's dose logging feature lets you record each injection — including the dose strength, date, and time — so you always have an accurate timeline. Dose reminders can also alert you on your weekly injection day so you never lose track of your schedule.
