What Iris tracks
Iris is built for the practical GLP-1 record people often need before follow-up appointments: dose history, side effects, weight, daily signals, notes, and questions. If a symptom feels important, Iris gives you a place to save the context before it gets lost.
Comparison
| Tool | What it captures well | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| Iris | Side effects, dose timing, notes, daily signals, and doctor questions | Not a symptom checker or emergency tool |
| Notes app | Quick free-form symptom notes | Harder to connect symptoms to dose dates and visits |
| Calendar | Appointment dates and reminders | Not designed for symptom detail or visit summaries |
| Prescription portal | Medication instructions from a provider | Usually not a day-to-day symptom journal |
Safety note
MedlinePlus lists nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, constipation, heartburn, burping, and headache among semaglutide injection side effects, and it lists serious symptoms that should prompt medical attention. Use Iris to keep a record, then use your clinician for care decisions.
