Schedule
Weekly
Typical Cycle
Usually run alongside a GLP-1 (semaglutide or tirzepatide) for 12+ weeks for stronger hunger suppression than either compound alone - keep taking the GLP-1, since it drives separate metabolic effects that cagrilintide doesn't provide on its own. Rarely used by itself long-term.
Draw Amount
25-50 units
Often stacked with a GLP-1 (semaglutide or tirzepatide) for stronger hunger suppression - keep taking the GLP-1 too, since it drives separate metabolic effects that cagrilintide doesn't provide on its own.

Community Reported Benefits
- Triggers deep, lasting satiety by acting directly on brain appetite centers - meals feel bigger than they are.
- Stacked with semaglutide or tirzepatide, users report noticeably stronger appetite control than either compound alone.
- Slows gastric emptying so food sits longer, killing the urge to snack between meals.
Things to Watch For
- Nausea, especially when combined with a GLP-1
- Reduced appetite that can be pronounced when stacked
- Mild injection site reactions
schedule Best Time to Take (Community Consensus)
Morning or evening, often taken alongside GLP-1 dose.
The Science
A long-acting amylin analog that binds amylin receptors in the brainstem, extending the feeling of fullness well beyond what GLP-1 alone produces.
