The dosage escalation schedule is based on clinical studies and is recommended only. This schedule is not mandatory for every patient as each individual responds differently to the medication. If semaglutide is working for you on the lower dosages, you may stay on the lower dosages for as long as you want, and increase the dose whenever you need it (for example, if you have plateaued in your weight loss). It is also recommended that you do not increase the dosage if you cannot tolerate the escalation. In this case, consider delaying the dose increase or reducing the dose for a few weeks.
