Drug Information
1 review for Semaglutide (Ozempic)
Ozempic contains Semaglutide.
Semaglutide injection (Ozempic) is a once-a-week medicine for type 2 diabetes. It lowers blood sugar, helps many people lose weight, and lowers the risk of heart attack and stroke in people with heart disease.
What is it used for?
- Type 2 diabetes in adults
- Lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke and heart death in people with type 2 diabetes and heart disease
How does it work?
Semaglutide copies a natural gut hormone called GLP-1. It helps the pancreas release insulin when blood sugar is high, lowers the sugar released by the liver, slows stomach emptying and makes you feel full sooner.
This information is written in simple words to help you understand this product. It does not replace advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Read these points before you start. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.
- This medicine works best together with healthy eating, regular activity and keeping a healthy weight.
- It is for type 2 diabetes. It is not a replacement for insulin in type 1 diabetes.
- Tell your doctor if you have kidney, liver or heart problems.
- Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding. Insulin is often used instead during pregnancy.
- Alcohol can affect your blood sugar. Drink only small amounts and never on an empty stomach.
- Learn the signs of low blood sugar (shaking, sweating, hunger, fast heartbeat, confusion) and keep sugary sweets or glucose tablets with you.
- Do not use it if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer, or if you have MEN 2 (a rare gene condition).
- Tell your doctor if you have had pancreatitis, gallbladder problems or diabetic eye disease (retinopathy).
- It slows emptying of the stomach, which can affect how other medicines, including the contraceptive pill, are absorbed.
- Stop it at least 2 months before a planned pregnancy. Do not use it during pregnancy.
- Drink enough fluid if you have sickness or diarrhoea, to protect your kidneys.
- Tell your doctor or pharmacist about every other medicine, vitamin or herbal product you use.
- Keep this product out of the reach and sight of children.
Like all medicines, Ozempic can cause side effects, but not everybody gets them.
Common side effects
- Feeling sick (nausea), especially in the first weeks
- Diarrhoea, constipation or being sick
- Stomach pain or bloating
- Less appetite
These are usually mild and often get better as your body gets used to it. Tell your doctor if they bother you or do not go away.
Stop using it and get medical help straight away if you notice:
- Signs of very low blood sugar that do not get better after eating sugar: confusion, drowsiness, fits or passing out
- Signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling of the face or lips, a severe rash, or trouble breathing
- Severe stomach pain that spreads to your back (possible pancreatitis)
- Pain in the upper right belly, fever or yellow skin (possible gallbladder problems)
- A lump or swelling in the neck, trouble swallowing or a hoarse voice
- Changes in your eyesight
This is not a complete list. If you notice anything unusual, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- Inject it once a week, on the same day each week, at any time of day, with or without food.
- Inject under the skin of your belly, thigh or upper arm. Change the spot each week.
- Start with 0.25 mg once a week for 4 weeks. Your doctor will raise the dose slowly, usually to 0.5 mg, then 1 mg or 2 mg if needed.
- Use a new needle each time and never share your pen, even if the needle is changed.
If you miss a dose: If 5 days or fewer have passed, inject it as soon as you remember. If more than 5 days have passed, skip it and inject on your usual day.
If you use too much: Contact your doctor, a poison control centre or your local emergency number straight away, even if you feel fine. Take the pack with you.
How to store it: Before first use, keep the pen in the fridge (2°C to 8°C). After first use, it can be kept in the fridge or below 30°C for up to 6 weeks. Do not freeze. Keep the cap on to protect it from light.
- QWill I need to take Ozempic forever?
- A
Type 2 diabetes is usually a long-term condition, so most people keep taking their medicine. Healthy changes to diet, activity and weight can sometimes reduce how much you need.
- QHow will I know if Ozempic is working?
- A
Your doctor will check your blood sugar and HbA1c (an average of your blood sugar over about 3 months). Some people also check their sugar at home.
- QWhy do I feel sick on Ozempic?
- A
Nausea is common when starting or increasing the dose. Eating smaller meals, stopping when you feel full, and avoiding fatty foods helps. It usually gets better.
- QWill Ozempic help me lose weight?
- A
Many people lose weight on it, because it reduces appetite. For diabetes, the main goal is blood sugar control.

My order went through without any problems. Someone from the team followed up to make sure all was fine. I was happy with how carefully it was packed. Good place to order Ozempic online.
