Description
Foundayo 17.2mg (orforglipron) is the maximum dose of Eli Lilly's once-daily oral GLP-1 treatment, approved by the FDA and the Emirates Drug Establishment for adults living with obesity, or who are overweight with
weight-related health conditions, to support weight management alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. As a small-molecule tablet rather than an injection, Foundayo provides a
needle-free GLP-1 option, and it is the only GLP-1 pill that can be taken at any time of day, with or without food or water.
The 17.2mg Foundayo tablet is the highest dose and one of the medicine's effective maintenance doses. It is reached only after gradually titrating up through 0.8mg, 2.5mg, 5.5mg, 9mg and 14.5mg, with each step
made under your doctor's guidance based on your response and tolerability. Not everyone needs to reach the maximum dose; many people remain on a lower dose if it is working well for them. In clinical trials, individual results varied, and your prescriber will explain what is realistic for your situation.
At CHS, a MOHAP-approved pharmacy, Foundayo 17.2mg in the UAE is dispensed only against a valid prescription from a licensed UAE physician. Because orforglipron is a prescription medicine with important safety considerations, it must be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
