What is Foundayo?

Foundayo is an oral GLP-1 receptor agonist containing orforglipron, a small-molecule medication that mimics a natural hormone your body releases after eating. It works by reducing appetite, slowing digestion, and helping you feel fuller for longer. Unlike some other oral GLP-1 medications, Foundayo doesn't require an empty stomach or a waiting period before eating — it's taken once daily, with or without food, at any time. It's prescribed alongside a reduced-calorie diet and regular physical activity, not in place of either.

GLP-1 receptor activation

Mimics the natural GLP-1 hormone released after eating, signaling fullness and slowing digestion.

Convenient oral dosing

Taken as a standard swallowed pill once daily, with no injections required.

Gradual dose titration

Starts low and increases over several months to reduce the chance of stomach-related side effects.

Frequently asked questions

How is Foundayo dosed?

Foundayo starts at 0.8 mg once daily for at least a month, then increases gradually — typically to 2.5 mg, 5.5 mg, 9 mg, and up to a maximum of 17.2 mg — based on how you're tolerating it and how you're responding. Your clinician manages this titration with you.

Does Foundayo affect my other medications?

Because Foundayo slows how quickly your stomach empties, it can affect how well other oral medications are absorbed — including oral hormonal contraceptives and certain antifungal or antiviral medications. If you take an oral contraceptive, your clinician may recommend switching to a non-oral method or adding a barrier method for 30 days after starting Foundayo and after each dose increase.

Who shouldn't take Foundayo?

Foundayo carries a boxed warning for thyroid tumor risk and shouldn't be taken by anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) — your clinician reviews your history to confirm it's safe for you.

How is Foundayo different from other GLP-1 weight-management medications?

Unlike some other oral GLP-1 medications, Foundayo can be taken once daily with or without food and without a waiting period before eating, offering more flexibility than options that require an empty stomach or an injection.

What side effects are associated with Foundayo?

The most common side effects are nausea, stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea, headache, GERD, and hair loss, which often improve as your body adjusts over the first few weeks.
