Wegovy clicks

Hi,
I have just gone up to the 1mg Wegovy pen and it's making me feel awful - really tired on Friday (soon after I took it) and yesterday morning, then today I feel sick.

I want to go back to 0.5mg but don't want to waste the pen - how many clicks is it to do 0.5mg rather than the full dose please?

Please be nice, I'm feeling sick and miserable on top of Mother's Day feelings!

Thank you guys!

Oh my goodness I could have written this!! I injected 1mg on Friday. And have felt sick/dizzy since.
With bad diarrhoea.

My plan is to inject 0.5mg on next Friday, from my 1mg pen. Which is 31 clicks.

Hope you feel better soon!

Aww I hope you're feeling better soon, it's rough isn't it!

Thanks for that! I might try building up again but just to 0.7 or 0.8, the jump to 1mg is too much for me.

How you feeling this morning? I still feel really dizzy and tired.
Really need these side effects to wear off! I've got a busy week!

losingatlast · 11/03/2024 15:27

I’m just exhausted. Slept for a lot longer than usual and could have carried on - I’m not a good sleeper so the level of grogginess is quite a novelty! I feel like a teenager who just wants to stay in bed 😂
Not really any other side effects today but I haven't eaten much which is maybe why I don’t feel sick. I suppose it is working in suppressing my appetite…
Have you eaten much?

I too am very tired.

I had beans on toast for lunch. But not hungry at all. For tea.

I lost 3lbs this last week, so it's definitely suppressed my appetite over the weekend🤣

All be it made me feel rubbish.

I'm on week 2 of my 1mg. I've felt much better this week than I did on the lower doses. No nausea yet, no dizzy spells, the constipation doesn't seem to be as bad as usual.

But I'm still not feeling much appetite suppression or seeing any weight loss to speak of. 😞I'm getting really fed up now.

I'm doing this. I'm injecting .5 from a 1mg pen. For me it's 37 clicks.

MiltonNorthern · 11/03/2024 18:04

Don't forget you need new needles each time. You can buy spares on eBay or Amazon. In boxes of 100!!

Smileymum12 · 16/03/2024 07:26

@losingatlast have you injected this week?

I haven't yet. I'm still scared from last Friday!!! I didn't feel well until Wednesday!

Sorry, totally missed this! I was on holiday last week so skipped a week (mostly because I forgot tbh!). Anyway, injected yesterday and feel totally fine, no side effects so far. How are you doing?

Glad you are feeling OK! I still haven't injected.
I'm still calorie controlling and exercisimg. So will just keep them and inject if I feel myself slipping.....

witte · 25/03/2024 20:29

@losingatlast I'm dropping back to .5. The 1mg is making me feel utterly exhausted and pretty sick too.

ElDee33 · 24/08/2024 23:01

Hi, I’m just wondering if anyone knows how many clicks a 1.7mg dose is? I went up to 1.7mg and the side effects were so unbearable I took a 2 week break and almost quit Wegovy altogether. I even had a couple of projectile vomit incidents when I had a bit of alcohol, so I went back down to 1mg for another 4 weeks. I am due to start 1.7mg on Monday again but want to do 2 half doses a few days apart instead of the whole lot at once and then having to take the following day off sick after injecting.

On the plus side the terrible side effects have gone completely from 1mg, I have no side effects at all and it’s completely pushed me through a plateau. Since going back down to 1mg I have lost 5lbs after losing nothing at all for 2 months, including during the time on 1.7mg. I’m now almost 10% of my whole body weight down and fit into clothes I haven’t worn since my wedding which is a massive relief.

ElDee33 · 24/08/2024 23:10

I’d estimate based on the 1mg pen it’s about 46 clicks, but wanted to sense check in case it’s a different set up.

Monpot · 22/12/2024 09:35

I was the same, fine until 1mg, 20lbs down the. The eggy burp, night nausea and upset tummy started rendering me useless for work. I’ve gone 31 clicks on my 1mg pen and ordered more needles just be mindful the pen needs using in 4 weeks I believe xx

ElDee33 · 23/12/2024 07:43

I found these charts online with- looks like 37 clicks is half the pen for both 1.7mg and 2.4mg which is how I’ve been spacing out my doses as I increase dose.

Hi all want to get .25 dose from a 0.5 wegovy pen- Would anyone have any idea how many clicks please? X

WeAllHaveWings · 26/01/2025 18:41

@Lou4564 I am a Mounjaro user rather than wegovy, but looking at the click charts above a full wegovy dose is 74 clicks, so the simple maths would be -

Desired dose / pen dose * 74 = number of clicks

0.25 / 0.5 * 74 = 37 clicks

Lou4564 · 25/04/2025 16:15

Hi all any idea what .5mg click count would be on 2.4 pen? Thank u!!
