I track glucose too. Where does that live?

Log it as a lab result or sync weight and activity from Apple Health, and everything draws on one timeline with your dose days marked.

Does Steady tell me what dose of Trulicity to take?

Never. The dose is your prescriber's call. Steady records what was prescribed and what actually happened, which is exactly the evidence that makes the next dose decision easier.

What happens when I miss a dose?

You log reality. The gap shows in your record, the cycle view restarts from the dose you actually took, and your prescriber sees an honest chart instead of a tidy one. What to do about a missed dose is a label and prescriber question, and the label's own guidance is printed on your medication insert.

Where is my Trulicity record stored?

On your phone. Steady keeps your health record on the device, and the only way it leaves is you exporting it.

Can I bring my record to appointments?

Yes, that is the payoff. One tap exports a clinician-ready PDF of doses, weight, side effects and labs, so a 15-minute appointment starts from evidence instead of memory.

Tracking Trulicity with Steady

Trulicity runs on a seven-day rhythm, and the week has a shape you can learn. This guide covers what dulaglutide actually does, the dose schedule on the label, and how to keep a record in Steady that shows you where your hard days land, when appetite returns, and what to hand your prescriber.

What Trulicity is

Trulicity is dulaglutide for type 2 diabetes, taken once a week. Dulaglutide copies GLP-1, a gut hormone that tells your brain you are full and slows how fast your stomach empties. Appetite gets quieter, small meals go further, and the effect is strongest in the day or two after a dose.

It comes as a single-use auto-injector where the needle is never visible, pressed to the skin once a week.

The dose schedule on the label

Dose	When	What it is for
0.75 mg	start	the usual starting dose
1.5 mg	if needed	the common maintenance dose
3 mg and 4.5 mg	if needed	higher steps, at least four weeks apart

Steps are a prescriber call, made against your glucose numbers and how the weeks feel, which is exactly the record Steady hands you.

The shape of the week

Day 0dose day

Day 1strongest effect

Day 2queasiness most common

Day 3steadier

Day 4steadier

Day 5appetite creeps back

Day 6next dose tomorrow

Not everyone's week looks like this, which is the point: after a few logged cycles Steady shows you your version of this strip, from your own check-ins.

Knowing the shape changes how you plan: people schedule dinners out for the back half of the cycle and keep the two days after the dose gentle. You only learn your own shape by logging it, which takes seconds a day.

Set it up in Steady

Tell Steady your plan
Pick Trulicity during setup and set your dose day. Reminders and the weekly cycle view shape themselves around it.
Log each dose where you gave it
One tap logs the dose, a second picks the spot on a body map of six sites. Steady flags the site that has rested longest, because rotating protects the tissue under the skin.
Do the ten-second check-in
Once a day, rate appetite and energy and note anything off. This is the data that turns into your pattern, and it costs less time than unlocking your phone usually does.
Weigh on a rhythm
Same scale, same morning, once or twice a week, or let Apple Health sync it automatically. Steady charts weight over your dose history so changes trace back to what preceded them.
Export before appointments
One tap builds a PDF of the whole record. Bring it, and the appointment starts from your data.

What your record shows after three weeks

This is where tracking stops being a chore and starts paying. Your side-effect logs cluster on the same one or two cycle days. Your appetite scores rise on the same late-cycle days. The trend view draws your weight with every dose marked underneath, so a plateau or a drop lines up with the dose change that preceded it. That one chart is the difference between telling your prescriber "week two was rough" and showing them exactly which day, at which dose, how severe.
