Thoughts After 6 Weeks on Ozempic
I messed up my last Ozempic dosage. I was thinking that after the 2 doses of .5 mg, then I moved to a 1 mg dosage. I went to the fridge to take out my new Ozempic pen and realized that I was given another starter pen with the 0.25 and 0.5 dosages. I wasn’t sure what to do, so I just took two 0.5 dosages.
A call to the doctor’s office the following day, led to a new prescription being sent to the pharmacy, along with the information that 2 more doses of the 0.5 mg were supposed to happen. The doctor did say, however, that if I was able to take the 1 mg without getting sick, to just stay with that from now on.
Goals for Today:
