Using semaglutide (Ozempic and Wegovy) is easy and straightforward. It is injected under the skin. We guide our patients on how to prepare and inject the medication. Always use the medication as per the directions provided on the prescription label.
When using the prescribed medical weight loss injection, make sure to wash your hands before and after the injection. Choose a clean, dry, and non-hairy area on your stomach, thigh, or upper arm, and choose a different area each time you give yourself a shot. You should always use a new needle when injecting your medicine.
Semaglutide is given once a week (once every seven days). Continue taking the medication unless instructed otherwise. Semaglutide comes with instructions for use. Ask your pharmacist or care team for directions on how to use your Semaglutide prescription. Feel free to ask questions if anything needs to be clarified or have encountered side effects. Follow the provided recommendations on how to use the medication.
What is the right dosage?
The dosage of Ozempic and Wegovy will vary depending on the patient. It is important to adhere to the instructions given by your naturopath or those printed on the label. On average, the dose may differ, so it is essential to keep it the same if instructed by the naturopath.
What should I do in case I miss a dose of Ozempic or Wegovy?
If you miss a dose of Ozempic®, you should take it within five days after the missed dose. If the missed dose is more than five days, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.
When it comes to Wegovy™ if you miss a dose and the next one is more than two days away, take it as soon as possible. If the missed dose is within two days, skip it and resume your normal dosage plan. If the missed dose is more than two weeks past due, start your treatment again as per your naturopath’s instructions.
