Ozempic newbie concerned about dosage

[KatieJane]

Hello. My story is banal - after menopause, I suddenly began to gain weight. And from 60 kilograms it has already reached 80. There are too few estrogens in my body to keep my weight up and live a normal life. Oh… the joys of aging. Because of the extra 20 kilos, I suffer from shortness of breath and sweating. I tried different diets and starved but did not get the desired effect. I wouldn’t say I liked sports when I was young, so every workout I do is a nightmare for me. I only like to walk, but it never gives a weight loss effect. At some point, I was desperate and thought there was no way out.. .But I shared my problem with a colleague at work. She told me about Ozempic. She did not take this medication, but before her eyes, her sister lost 30 kg in just three months. I would very much like to repeat this success. So far, I’m just at the beginning of the study and collecting information about the drug. I hope that knowledgeable people will help me to clarify some points. I plan to use Ozempic for weight loss. But I do not know how much drug is needed for the first time? I rely on you, ozempic weight loss forum!! I start with a dosage of 0.25. Please tell me how much drug is needed per month? Anyone?

Hi, KatieJane welcome to the Ozempforum!

If the dosage is 0.25, injection pens for a single dose of 0.25 mg are probably the best for you. The injection of Ozempic medication is given once a week, on the same day, preferably at the same time. Next, count yourself. You need four for a month. If you plan to be treated for a long time, you would like pre-filled disposable pens 2 mg of the active ingredient per 1.5 millilitres. This pen includes 8 doses of 0.25 mg.
