Ozempic, a prescription medication for adults with type 2 diabetes, is a once-weekly injection that helps manage blood sugar levels. Its active ingredient, semaglutide, mimics a naturally occurring hormone (GLP-1) that regulates appetite and food intake. By slowing down digestion and increasing feelings of fullness, Ozempic can also lead to weight loss as a common side effect. It is an important part of a treatment plan that includes diet and exercise, and has also been shown to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes and heart disease. While it is not FDA-approved specifically for weight loss, its effectiveness in this area has made it a topic of conversation, and it is a powerful tool for those seeking to improve their glycemic control and overall health.
Directions
Ozempic is supplied in single-patient-use pens, which are injected under the skin, with or without food. This medication is administered into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm, with the injection site rotating each week. Use a new needle for each injection. If you miss your dose, you may administer it within 5 days. Always follow the prescription label and your doctor's instructions and ask for guidance if you have any questions or concerns.
Unused Ozempic pens can be stored in the fridge until their expiry date. Used Ozempic pens without attached needles can be kept at room temperature or in the fridge until their expiry date or for 56 days, whichever comes first. Ozempic pens should not be frozen.
