The Dose Is Small.
The Work Isn’t.
Man lifting in the gym

Strength train 3 days a week

Resistance training tells your body to keep muscle while the scale moves. Lose fat, keep the steel.

Steak and salad on a plate

Protein + whole foods

Aim for roughly 0.7–1g per pound of goal bodyweight, from real food. Appetite drops, so protein comes first on the plate.

Man out walking with his girlfriend

Walk every day

8,000–10,000 steps. Boring. Works.

Man asleep

Sleep and hydrate

Seven-plus hours and plenty of water. It also makes the stomach side effects easier to manage.

Important Safety Information

Boxed warning: risk of thyroid C-cell tumors. In animal studies, Tirzepatide caused thyroid C-cell tumors. It is unknown whether it causes these tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in people. Do not use Tirzepatide if you or a family member have ever had MTC, or if you have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). Tell your physician about a lump or swelling in your neck, trouble swallowing, hoarseness or shortness of breath.

Do not use if you’ve had a serious allergic reaction to Tirzepatide or any ingredient in it.

Possible serious side effects include inflammation of the pancreas (severe stomach pain that may reach your back), gallbladder problems, low blood sugar (especially with insulin or a sulfonylurea), kidney problems from dehydration, serious allergic reactions, changes in vision for people with diabetes, and depression or thoughts of self-harm.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, indigestion and decreased appetite. They’re usually worse when a dose is increased.

Compounded medications are not FDA-approved. The FDA does not review compounded drugs for safety, effectiveness or quality. Compounded Tirzepatide is prescribed only when a licensed physician decides it is medically appropriate for you, and is prepared by Strive Pharmacy, a state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacy.

Answers.
What is microdosing Tirzepatide?
It means taking a lower weekly dose of Tirzepatide than the doses typically used for weight loss. With us it usually starts at 1.25mg a week, and your physician decides whether and how to adjust it.
Why would anyone take a lower dose?
Some men want to start at a lower dose because they’re sensitive to side effects or prefer a gentler start. Your physician decides whether that fits you.
Has microdosing been studied?
Not specifically. Clinical trials of Tirzepatide used higher doses. What we share about lower doses is general information, not a proven result, and your experience may differ.
Who decides if it’s right for me?
A licensed U.S. physician. They review your health history, weight, goals and medications, and decide whether Tirzepatide is appropriate and at what dose.
What does it cost?
$300/month, including your physician, unlimited messaging, the medication, supplies and cold shipping. Cancel anytime.
Can I move up to standard dosing later?
Yes, if your physician decides it makes sense. You’d switch to standard-dose pricing.
