Guides for life on a GLP-1
Plain answers from the labels and public sources: missed doses, half-life, protein, side effects and dose schedules.
Missed your GLP-1 dose? What each label says
Missed an Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound or Trulicity shot? The missed-dose window from each US label, side by side, and how to keep track.
GLP-1 half-life: why the days before your next shot can feel different
Semaglutide’s half-life is about a week, tirzepatide’s about 5 days. What that means for the level of medication between shots, explained simply.
Protein on a GLP-1: setting a daily target you can actually hit
Eating less on a GLP-1 makes protein easy to miss. How Steady works out a daily protein, fiber and water target, and simple ways to reach it.
Tracking GLP-1 side effects: what to log and when to call
The most common GLP-1 side effects according to the labels, what is worth writing down, and the warning signs the labels say need a doctor.
GLP-1 dose schedules: weekly shots, daily tablets and dose steps
Which GLP-1 medications are weekly, which are daily, and how dose steps usually work, with the doses you can log for each one in Steady.
