## Definition

Dose titration means starting at a low medicine dose and increasing stepwise over weeks under medical supervision.

## Extended

Semaglutide injection titrates from 0.25 mg weekly upward; oral from 3 mg daily. Skipping steps increases nausea risk. Indian patients should follow prescribed schedules exactly. In India, these concepts appear in RSSDI and ICMR guidance for type 2 diabetes and obesity care—always confirm details with your prescribing physician.
