A common titration approach includes: Week 12: 0.3 mg Week 34: 0.6 mg Week 56: 1.2 mg Week 78: 1.8 mg Week 9 and onward: 2.4 mg or higher, based on tolerance and clinical response Always consult a healthcare provider or licensed research facility for actual dosing guidance
Standard CagriSema dosing from clinical trials Phase 3 trial protocol: Semaglutide: Titrate to 2.4mg weekly Cagrilintide: Titrate to 2.4mg weekly Both given as separate weekly injections Slow titration over 16-20 weeks Semaglutide titration schedule: Week 1-4: 0.25mg weekly Week 5-8: 0.5mg weekly Week 9-12: 1.0mg weekly Week 13-16: 1.7mg weekly Week 17+: 2.4mg weekly (maintenance) Cagrilintide titration schedule (when combined): Week 1-4: 0.6mg weekly Week 5-8: 1.2mg weekly Week 9-12: 1.8mg weekly Week 13+: 2.4mg weekly (maintenance) Why slow titration matters: GI side effects worse if escalated quickly Especially with combination Body needs time to adapt Better long-term adherence Alternative dosing strategies Conservative approach (better tolerated): Semaglutide: Max 1.7-2.0mg weekly Cagrilintide: Max 1.8-2.0mg weekly Slower titration (20-24 weeks) For GI-sensitive individuals Aggressive approach (maximum weight loss): Semaglutide: 2.4mg weekly Cagrilintide: 2.4-3.0mg weekly (some trials test higher) Standard titration timeline For excellent tolerators seeking maximum results Higher side effect risk Sequential addition approach: Start semaglutide alone, titrate to 2.4mg (16 weeks) Stabilize for 4-8 weeks Add cagrilintide, starting at 0.6mg Titrate cagrilintide to 2.4mg (12 weeks) Total timeline: 32-36 weeks to full dose May reduce side effects Maintenance dosing: Once target weight achieved May reduce to: Semaglutide 1.7mg + Cagrilintide 1.8mg Maintain weight loss Better long-term tolerability More affordable Use our peptide calculator , peptide cost calculator , peptide dosing guide , and peptide dosage chart
