Tested in people

A human trial worked out how much to take and how often, so a dosing schedule is shown.

This is 180 units, past the 60-unit dial. Splitting it across administrations, or using less water to raise the concentration, brings it back into range.

Dial range varies by pen; 1–60 units is the common configuration.

Published research contexts for Ecnoglutide describe 1.22.4 mg per administration. Descriptive only, not a recommendation.

Engineered for extended action supporting once-weekly dosing; a precise human half-life is not well characterised in accessible literature.

A cAMP/G-protein-biased GLP-1 receptor agonist studied in phase-2 dose-ranging. The evidence assigned target maintenance amounts reached by stepwise titration, so a single target-range row is shown rather than an invented weekly ramp.
