🔬 What Cagrilintide Does
Mimics amylin, a hormone released with insulin
Strong appetite suppression
Slows gastric emptying → feel full longer
Improves satiety & food control
Often stacked with GLP-1s (Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, Retatrutide) for enhanced fat loss
💉 Reconstitution (as per box)
Add 2 ml sterile water to the vial
Let water run down the side (don’t shake)
Store refrigerated (2–8°C)
📏 Dosing Guide (once weekly)
Using a 1ml / 100-unit insulin syringe
0.25 mg = 10 units (Weeks 1–4)
0.5 mg = 20 units (Weeks 5–8)
1 mg = 40 units (optional maintenance)
Max: 2 mg per week
Most people do very well on 0.25–0.5 mg — more is not always better.
⚠️ Common Side Effects
Nausea (especially first weeks)
Reduced appetite (can be intense)
Fullness / bloating 👉 Start low to avoid this.
🔥 Best Use
Fat-loss phases
Appetite control during prep
With GLP-1s for next-level hunger suppression
Works well even without GLP-1s
