Foundayo Dosing at a Glance
How to titrate safely
Allow at least 30 days on the current dose before each increase. Take once daily with or without food; swallow tablets whole (do not break, crush, or chew). Do not take more than one tablet per day.
The guiding principle: only increase the dose if you're tolerating the current one, and slow down (or pause the escalation) if side effects flare. Going up faster than the label schedule does not speed up results — it mostly increases nausea and other GI side effects.
If you miss a dose or can't tolerate a step
Missed a dose? The late-dose window differs by drug. See our GLP-1 missed-dose rules by drug for the exact rule for Foundayo before doubling up or skipping.
Can't tolerate a dose increase? The label allows delaying escalation or staying on a lower dose. Read what to expect at each step on the Foundayo side effects page, then talk to your prescriber before changing your schedule.
