Dose Track keeps the strength of your compounded tirzepatide vial, turns each dose you log into syringe units, and counts down what is left. It reminds you on your weekly shot day and shows when to reorder from your pharmacy.
Compounded tirzepatide has no FDA label; the Mounjaro and Zepbound labels describe the approved pens and vials only. Your prescriber sets your dose, and in Dose Track you log the dose your prescriber gave you on your weekly shot day.
Tirzepatide vials are often stronger in mg/mL than semaglutide ones, so the units for a dose can look small. Recording each dose change from its date keeps the units right as the dose rises.
Compounded tirzepatide usually comes already mixed in a multi-dose vial labeled in mg per mL; some comes as powder to mix with bacteriostatic water. Either way, the units on an insulin syringe depend only on that strength.
Enter the strength once, or the mg and water you used, and each dose you log in Dose Track shows its mL and units with a syringe drawn to the line.

Each row is something worth writing down for compounded tirzepatide, why it matters for this medicine, and what Dose Track does with it.
| What to track | Why it matters | In Dose Track |
|---|---|---|
| Vial strength | The same mg dose is a different number of units at a different mg/mL. | Saved with the vial; each logged dose shows its units. |
| Weekly shot | Tirzepatide is given once a week. | A weekly reminder, and a double-dose check if a second shot is logged within half a week. |
| Dose changes | Your prescriber sets each change; log the dose your prescriber gave you. | Record each new dose from its start date; the units update with it. |
| What is left in the vial | A multi-dose vial lasts fewer weeks as the dose goes up. | Doses come off the vial in use, with run-out and order-by dates based on your pharmacy's delivery time. |
| Weight | Many people on tirzepatide track weight alongside their dose. | Log weight or sync it from Apple Health or Health Connect. |
| Injection site | Weekly shots go into the abdomen, thigh or upper arm. | Each shot logged with its site; the next one suggested. |
Dose Track has quick picks for the side effects people on GLP-1 medicines log most: nausea, constipation, diarrhea, reflux or heartburn, tiredness, low appetite, injection-site reaction and headache. You can type in anything else, set how bad it was, and see it next to the dose and the dose step you were on.
There is no label for compounded tirzepatide, so there is no official missed-dose rule. Ask your prescriber what to do if a shot is late.
In Dose Track a missed dose stands out in your history, so you can see the gap and count from the right day.
Dose Track is a tracking app, not medical advice. It records what you and your prescriber decide; it does not recommend doses. Check any dose change with your prescriber.
