Increasing Your Dose
Escalation pricing for 5mg, 7.5mg & 10mg
After 4 weeks on 2.5mg, your prescriber may increase your dose. The escalation phase moves through 5mg, 7.5mg, and 10mg — each for a minimum of 4 weeks. This is where most patients start seeing significant results.
Dose increases
Each step up may bring a brief return of initial side effects. This is normal and usually milder than your first experience. Your prescriber will decide when you're ready to increase based on your response and tolerability.
Price differences
Prices generally increase with dose strength. However, discount codes often apply across all doses, so a pharmacy with a strong code may be cheapest even at higher doses. Compare total cost including consultation fees.
Switching pharmacies
You're not locked into one pharmacy. If a competitor offers better pricing at your new dose, you can switch. Just ensure your prescription is transferred — most online pharmacies handle this seamlessly.
Quick tips
- Don't rush dose increases — minimum 4 weeks at each level
- Track your weight and side effects in a journal
- Compare prices at each new dose — the cheapest at 2.5mg may not be cheapest at 7.5mg
- Ask your prescriber about staying at a lower dose if side effects are significant
