How to Use HOW TO USE: Read the Medication Guide and Instructions for Use provided by your pharmacist before you start using semaglutide and each time you get a refill. Learn all preparation and usage instructions. If you have questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Inject this medication under the skin in the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm as directed by your doctor, usually once weekly. It may be used with or without food. The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Your doctor will start you on a low dose first to decrease your risk of stomach/abdominal side effects, and gradually increase your dose. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully. Before using, check this product visually for particles or discoloration. If either is present, do not use the liquid. Before injecting each dose, clean the injection site with rubbing alcohol. Change the injection site each time to lessen injury under the skin. Do not inject in an area that is tender, bruised, red, hard, or has scars or stretch marks. Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it on the same day and time each week. It may help to mark your calendar with a reminder. Carefully follow the meal plan and exercise program your doctor has recommended. Learn how to store and discard medical supplies safely.
Missed Dose MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose, use it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose (less than 48 hours away), skip the missed dose. Use your next dose at the regular time. Do not double the dose to catch up. If you miss more than 2 doses in a row, ask your doctor if you should restart the medication with a lower dose to reduce your chance of side effects.
Notes NOTES: Do not share this medication with others. Lab and/or medical tests (such as kidney function, blood glucose, heartbeat, weight) should be done while you are using this medication. Keep all medical and lab appointments. Consult your doctor for more details.
