Description
Foundayo 5.5mg (orforglipron) is one of the maintenance doses of Eli Lilly's once-daily oral GLP-1 treatment, approved 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 5.5mg Foundayo tablet is reached gradually. Treatment begins at 0.8mg, increases to 2.5mg, and then to 5.5mg once daily, with each step taken under your doctor's guidance based on your response and tolerability.
Unlike the lower starting doses, 5.5mg is one of the first doses at which Foundayo is considered fully effective - though your prescriber decides whether to maintain this dose or continue adjusting through the
higher strengths. This "start low, go slow" approach helps reduce the likelihood of digestive side effects.
At CHS, a MOHAP-approved pharmacy, Foundayo 5.5mg 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.
