Ozempic

[CarlieH]

I have just started Ozempic 0.5mg & I feel like it’s not working! I was previously on Saxenda & I’d been taking that for just over a year & lost 4st! I’ve heard about Ozempic & still want to lose more weight so thought I’d change over to it, I don’t know if it’s my mind tricking me into thinking Ozempic is not working because I’m not injecting every day like I was with the Saxenda or it is working & I just need to give it more time! I know it’s literally my first injection, my 2nd one will be Saturday & then after the 4th I’ll move up to 1mg. I just wanted some advice, reassurance or anything really to let me know I’m not going mad & it will work??

I've replied to your query on one of the other threads you posted to - " few months in" thread

Does anyone know what dose of Ozempic would be equivalent to 3mg ( top daily dose) of Saxenda?
I've been on Saxenda for 3 months with excellent weight loss results but cannot get Saxenda so have ordered a 4 week pen of Ozempic ( with starting doses of 0.25mg).
My feeling is to go straight to 0.5mg or possibly above...obviously would last a month, I realise that.

would not

Hi all, just looking for some advice, I watered on Ozempic 0.25 two weeks ago and am wanting to go up to the 0.5 but it seems to be out of stock everywhere. I got the pen from Quick meds for £174 but have just seen they have put it up by £100 so it’s now £274 a month. I can’t afford that so was looking at Rybelsus but have to start at the lowest does which is frustrating, I wondered if anyone else had done this?

@Oneearringlost Can't help with the dosage but the .25 and .5 pens of Ozempic both hold 2mg of Ozempic, that's enough for 8 x .25 doses or 4 x .25 and 2 x .5 doses, although not advertised as such. Basically the .25 and .5 pens are the same

I'm getting mine from UK Meds now. I can trust them and the price is good. Plus they actually have stock!

LOL that website looks dodgy AF, 'Doctor Jay'. If you are shipping from the US how on earth could you keep the vials cold? And the US has shortages like everywhere else.
