Ozempic 0.25mg / 0.5mg
Ozempic 0.25mg/0.5mg is a prescription medication used for the improvement of blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It contains the active ingredient semaglutide and is administered via injection. It works by stimulating insulin release, decreasing sugar production in the liver, and slowing down food leaving the stomach.
How is this medication used?
Start with 0.25 mg once weekly for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, increase the dose to 0.5 mg once weekly. Administer Ozempic by subcutaneous injection in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. The day of weekly administration can be changed if necessary as long as the last dose was administered 2 or more days before.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and constipation. Ozempic may also increase the risk of thyroid C-cell tumors. Serious side effects can include pancreatitis, kidney problems, gallbladder problems, and severe allergic reactions.
What are the potential interactions?
Ozempic can interact with other medications, affecting blood sugar levels, such as insulin or sulfonylureas, leading to hypoglycemia. It also may reduce the speed at which the stomach empties, affecting the absorption of oral medications. Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medicines you are taking to prevent potential interactions.
