What Is Titration?


How titration works

Titration is the process of gradually increasing your medication dose over time. This allows your body to adjust to the medication while helping to minimise potential side effects.

The good news is that GLP-1 medications, like Wegovy and Mounjaro, follow a structured titration schedule to ensure a smooth transition. Plus, at MedExpress, our team is here to guide you on dosage increases with regular medicine reminders via email. You’ll continue increasing your dose every four weeks until you reach your maintenance dose. Your maintenance dose refers to the dose that provides the best results, while keeping side effects manageable. This may be the maximum recommended dose for your treatment, or a lower dose that achieves the best balance between effectiveness and minimal side effects.
