In the app

How GLP Calendar tracks Zepbound.

  • Shot-day reminder with a heads-up the day before, plus the label's 4-day window if you run late
  • A body map that suggests the least recently used site and flags that the back of the arm needs a helper
  • Dose steps with dates. Your prescriber decides each step; the app only records it
  • Your pen supply, alongside the KwikPen's 4-dose, 30-day limit from the label
  • Side-effect check-ins tagged by day after your shot and by dose step, so you can see your own pattern
  • Weight as a percentage of your starting weight, with each dose step shaded on the chart
  • Protein, water and fiber targets for the days you barely feel hungry
  • A one-page PDF for your prescriber: doses, weight, symptoms, nutrition, labs and supplements
Medication screen for Zepbound 5 mg: estimated level across nine weekly shots, half-life, and dose steps from 2.5 mg to 5 mg.
Log shot sheet with a body map that suggests the left thigh as the next injection site based on the last three sites.
FAQ

Zepbound questions, answered.

Does GLP Calendar tell me when to increase my Zepbound dose?

No. It shows what the label says — increases of 2.5 mg after at least 4 weeks — and records the dose your prescriber chooses. It never suggests or calculates a dose.

Can I track Zepbound vials and the KwikPen?

Yes. You pick your device when you add Zepbound: single-dose pen, KwikPen or vial, and GLP Calendar shows the storage and use limits that the label sets for that device.

What if I'm late with my Zepbound shot?

The US label says to take a missed dose within 4 days (96 hours) of the missed day; after that, skip it and take the next dose on your usual day. GLP Calendar shows that window on your Today screen.

Is GLP Calendar made by Eli Lilly?

No. GLP Calendar is an independent app by BALANCED LLC and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Eli Lilly.
