The quick answer

Trulicity's single-use weekly pen is simple — remembering the day and rotating sites is the hard part. DoseDash reminds you on your dose day, records each site on a body map and charts side effects and progress, free on iPhone.

How DoseDash helps with Trulicity

  • Weekly dose-day reminders that fit your routine
  • Injection-site history on the interactive body map
  • Side-effect logging with trend analysis across dose changes
  • Apple Health integration for steps and workouts

What if you miss a Trulicity dose?

Per the official prescribing information: if you miss a Trulicity dose, take it as soon as possible if there are at least 3 days (72 hours) until your next scheduled dose. If your next dose is less than 3 days away, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule. Ask your prescriber if you're ever unsure.

Start tracking Trulicity in 3 steps

  1. 1Download DoseDash free on the App Store and pick Trulicity from 30+ supported GLP-1 medications.
  2. 2Set your dose day and current dose — reminders and the level chart configure themselves.

Why not just use a notes app?

Notes capture what happened; a tracker shows what it means. Where a note says “injected Tuesday, felt queasy Thursday,” DoseDash charts the estimated dulaglutide level between doses, lines your side effects up against it, reminds you before your next dose is due, and turns months of entries into a report your care team can read in seconds.

Trulicity tracking FAQ

Is there a free app to track Trulicity?

Yes — DoseDash is free on the App Store, with weekly reminders, site tracking, side-effect logs and progress charts included.

What if I miss my Trulicity dose?

Take it as soon as possible if your next scheduled dose is at least 3 days away; otherwise skip it and stay on schedule. DoseDash's countdown makes the 72-hour rule easy to apply — and your prescriber has the final word.

Can I change my Trulicity dose day?

Dulaglutide's half-life is around 5 days, so it takes several weeks to largely clear after stopping. DoseDash charts the estimated level between weekly doses.

Does DoseDash work with Trulicity's auto-injector pens?

Yes — you log the dose, site and how you felt; the pen type doesn't matter. The body map keeps weekly rotation organized.
