Question about Ozempic ordering and dosing

6 replies

ladyandthechocolate · 22/04/2022 08:41

I am looking to buy Ozempic online and have never used it before. I am wondering about how to get best value for money!
Starting dose is 0.25mg but for a small amount more I can order 1mg. Can I order the 1mg and titrate the dose down or will the pack not include enough needles or a once weekly injection? If I order the larger dose, in my head I can get a lot more use out of it than ordering the lower dose but I don’t know what the pack contains.
Thanks in advance!

Yes , I believe you can do this , although once open it only lasts I think about 60 days so may only add you about 2 weeks ? Let me go and search I think it may be 18 clicks
I will come back

It is 18 clicks for 0.25 mg 36 clicks for 0.5mg
I think they recommend 4 weeks of 0.5 mg then 4 weeks of 0.5 mg

And yes if you do that you will need to purchase extra needles , just look for the gauge written on the ones you get and you can probably order some online or purchase from a chemist maybe ?

For a first timer you will need to complete an online Consultation - try Private Doc , Health Express usually cheapest , Lloyds lots of them
They will assess if you are suitable and then post , don't order on a Saturday as it comes in a cold pack , needs to be refrigerated until it's open and kept out of sunlight
You'll get a pen , 4 needles , a sharps box all wrapped up in a cool pack and blanket thingy

Duuuuur ... that should say 4 weeks of 0.25mg then 4 of 0.5mg

Oh great- well that sounds straightforward enough. Ordering it in 1mg form certainly brings the price down. I have ordered from health express- £149.99 for 1mg then a discount code took off another £15! It is being dispatched Monday to arrive Tuesday.

Hello

Trying to see if this thread is salvageable. I've been prescribed ozempic but they've sent 0.5g instead of 0.25g. I've tried contacting them but no response as yet.
Is it possible to rework the clicks etc to get the 0.25 dosage?! I'm so confused!

Would appreciate any help xx
