Redose
Redose is the best compounded tirzepatide tracker for people managing a clinician-prescribed compounding pharmacy protocol on iPhone or Android. From calculating draw volume on reconstitution day to logging every weekly injection and charting weight over a multi-month titration, Redose keeps the full record so you can focus on results, not spreadsheets. It also logs calories, food, macros, and water alongside your doses, so you do not need a separate calorie app.
Why track compounded tirzepatide with Redose
Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved as a finished drug product. It is prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies and prescribed by clinicians who set the concentration, dose, and titration schedule individually. That means you are responsible for mixing correctly, drawing the right volume, injecting in the right place, and escalating on the right timeline, all without the pre-filled auto-injector pen that brand-name users rely on. Redose was built for exactly this level of hands-on protocol management.
- One-tap injection logging. After every weekly shot, open Redose and confirm the dose in under ten seconds. The app pre-fills your current dose and timestamp so nothing is left to memory.
- Body-map injection-site rotation. Tap the exact location on an anatomical body map after each injection. Redose stores your full site history so you always know which area to avoid this week, reducing the risk of lipohypertrophy from repeated use of the same spot.
- Dose and titration schedule in view. Enter your escalation plan once. The home screen shows your current dose, your next scheduled injection day, and a countdown so you are never caught off guard.
- Reconstitution and draw-volume calculator. The free calculators at /calculators handle BAC water ratios and syringe unit conversion. Enter your vial concentration and Redose tells you exactly how many units to draw for each dose.
- Side-effect and symptom journal. Log nausea, fatigue, GI events, or any injection-site reaction right after dosing. A timestamped symptom record alongside each dose change is the most useful thing you can bring to a dose-review appointment.
- Weekly reminder so you never miss a dose. Set your injection day and time once. The push reminder fires automatically, and one tap opens the log screen.
- Weight and food tracking. Log weight directly or pull it in from Apple Health or Health Connect. Watching the trend line build across each dose phase is the clearest signal that the protocol is working.
How it works
- Set your medication and dose. Add compounded tirzepatide, enter the concentration your pharmacy provided (for example, 5 mg/mL), your starting dose, and your weekly injection day. Use the reconstitution calculator at /calculators to confirm your draw volume before your first injection.
- Log each injection in one tap. When the weekly reminder fires, tap to open the log screen, confirm the dose, select the injection site on the body map, and add a brief symptom note if anything stands out. The entire flow takes under fifteen seconds.
- Watch your progress build. The adherence dashboard tracks your injection streak, charts weight over time alongside each dose change, and summarizes how often symptoms appear at each tier. Export a PDF before any appointment so your prescriber sees a complete record rather than relying on your recollection.
Track your food and water too
On a GLP-1, appetite drops significantly, which makes it easy to undereat protein and forget to drink enough water. Both matter for preserving muscle and avoiding the fatigue and headaches that often come with rapid weight loss. Redose lets you log meals, calories, macros, and daily water intake right beside your injection history, so everything trends together in one place instead of being split across multiple apps. See the calorie tracker at /features/calorie-tracker and the water tracker at /features/water-tracker for details on how logging works.
What to track on compounded tirzepatide
Compounded tirzepatide contains the same active molecule as brand-name tirzepatide (a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist), but concentration and formulation vary by pharmacy. Dosing is set entirely by your clinician. The schedule below reflects a commonly reported starting pattern for weight management purposes and is not a recommendation. Your prescriber determines your personal dose, pace, and maximum.
A typical reported titration schedule (your prescriber sets your personal dose and pace):
| Approximate week | Commonly reported dose | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1-4 | 2.5 mg weekly | Starting dose, tolerance and GI adjustment |
| 5-8 | 5 mg weekly | First escalation if well tolerated |
| 9-12 | 7.5 mg weekly | Optional, prescriber-guided |
| 13-16 | 10 mg weekly | Optional escalation |
| 17-20 | 12.5 mg weekly | Optional escalation |
| 21 and beyond | 15 mg weekly | Upper range; individual maintenance dose varies |
Many prescribers hold a dose level for longer than four weeks when GI side effects are present, which is a clinically sensible approach. A detailed log of which symptoms appeared at which dose, and how long they lasted, gives the prescriber exactly what they need to make that call confidently.
Beyond the dose, the most valuable things to track are: the injection site on every shot (to prevent repeated-site scar tissue), GI symptom severity for the first 24 to 48 hours after each injection, weight measured at a consistent time of day, energy level, and any injection-site redness or swelling. The side-effect tracker in Redose captures all of these in a structured, searchable format.

Built for the whole journey
Live vial inventory and reorder reminders keep you from running out mid-protocol. Enter the total amount in your current vial, and Redose counts down with each logged dose, alerting you when it is time to contact your pharmacy. Compounding pharmacies often require a few days of lead time, so an early warning matters.
Apple Health and Health Connect sync means body weight, BMI, and activity data flow into Redose without manual entry. You get a complete picture of how your protocol is affecting your metrics over months, not just weeks.
Doctor-ready PDF export compiles your full dose history, weight trend, adherence rate, and symptom notes into a clean report. Bring it to a telehealth check-in or an in-person appointment. Prescribers who see structured data make better-informed titration decisions than those working from verbal summaries.
