Dose & Lose

Dose & Lose Editorial Team

The Dose & Lose Editorial Team is responsible for the guides on this site, published by Petros IT Solutions SRL, the publisher of Dose & Lose. The guides are researched from primary sources, such as prescribing information, regulator guidance and peer-reviewed clinical trials, and each one passes a check of its figures, arithmetic and sources before publication. Illustrative figures are labelled as illustrative in the text that introduces them.

No medical, pharmacy or dietetic qualification is claimed. These guides explain how GLP-1 medications and tracking work; they are not personal medical advice, and they never recommend a dose. Where a question needs a professional, the guide says so. See the editorial policy for how this content is produced, sourced and corrected, and send corrections to office@doseandlose.com.
