4 min read · Zepbound titration · tirzepatide dose ladder · Zepbound 2.5 mg starting dose
Scannable reference card for the Zepbound (tirzepatide) dose ladder pulled directly from the DailyMed Zepbound prescribing information. Six dose steps, 4 weeks per step, three maintenance tiers (5, 10, or 15 mg), a 96-hour missed-dose window, and the red-flag side effects that warrant pausing escalation. For decisions about whether to advance, the FDA label lets prescribers hold a patient at any tolerated maintenance dose — the 15 mg ceiling is the maximum, not a required target.
