Hi everyone, I have tried 2 weeks of a 10mg pen but find the side effects too much. I was previously on 7.5mg.

Does anyone know if it is possible to take a lesser dose or maybe even a half dose? I was thinking of turning/clicking the pen 30 times (I can’t remember how many ‘clicks’ were needed for a full 10mg dose but am sure it’s more than this) but I don’t know what to do for the best.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello! A full dose is 60 clicks, so 7.5 would be 45 clicks. Good luck!

Oh my gosh @NewLifter and @beetr00 thank you both so much! I’ve been really worried about what to do but, at the same time, not wanting to waste the pen!
