Why Aurelius
Most GLP-1 programs weren't built for you. Ours is.
Many GLP-1 approaches rely on aggressive dosing, injections, or one-size fits all plans that aren't designed for long term success. We do things differently starting with your biology.
The Quit Reason
Full dose nausea rates run as high as 44%. Most people quit before the medication has time to work. Microdose keeps the benefit while dialing the side effect load down significantly.
The Composition Problem
On full dose protocols, 25 to 40% of weight lost can be lean muscle. Microdose paired with adequate protein preserves significantly more lean mass.
The Exit Problem
Patients who stop full dose GLP-1 cold often regain 60 to 75% of lost weight within a year. Microdose is designed with a physician planned step-down from day one.
The Budget Problem
Full dose pen programs run $200 to $300 per month for a dose most patients do not need. Microdose delivers the same mechanism at a fraction of the cost.
Clinical Reference Tool
Estimate your protocol outcome
Based on observational data at 1mg microdose tirzepatide. Population-level ranges only.
Population-level estimates based on observational data at 1mg microdose tirzepatide. Large-scale RCT data at sub-therapeutic doses is limited. Not an individual prediction. Individual results vary significantly. This is not a medical projection. All protocols require clinician evaluation.
The Microdose Difference
GLP-1 was not designed
to be the same for everyone.
Standard GLP-1 plans force extreme doses, causing 90% of people to quit. You aren't failing, the protocol is. To reclaim your metabolic health, energy and focus, you just need a precise fraction of it.
Full-dose data: Wilding et al., NEJM 2021; JAMA Health Forum 2024. ¹Microdose rates reflect published dose-ranging data, not Aurelius-specific trial data. Individual results vary.
Our Protocols
Four science backed formulations
How It Works
From intake to a personalized protocol in 24 hours.
A board-certified physician reviews your intake, designs a microdose protocol calibrated to your biology, and stays with you as your protocol evolves.
Patient Experiences
What patients say about the protocol.
My biggest concern wasn't the weight; staying strong mattered just as much. I lift four days a week and I wasn't willing to give that up. My doctor and I worked out a plan together, and I've kept up my training the whole way through. It feels like the program was built around my life, not the other way around.
Andrew C., 37
Fitness
I went in skeptical. I'd read enough scary things online about side effects that I almost didn't start. What I actually experienced was a slow, steady process where I could text my doctor anytime something felt off, and we adjusted. I wish I'd known how much support there'd be. That's what made it work for me.

Founder
I'm a software engineer. I sit for ten hours a day, and the weight had been creeping up for over a year. I went in skeptical, I'd read the scary side effect threads and almost didn't start. What I actually got was slow and steady, built around how I already lived instead of asking me to rebuild my life. Anything felt off, I messaged my doctor and we adjusted. I didn't expect the support to be the thing that mattered most, but it was. That's what brought my control and confidence back.
