Ozempic contains semaglutide and is authorised in the European Union for adults with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes alongside diet and activity. Other semaglutide products can have different indications and doses. Do not interchange them using online advice.
Prepare the conversation
Ask why the medicine is being considered for you, the treatment goal and when response will be reviewed. Bring medicines, conditions, pregnancy plans and supplements. Agree on what to do about nausea or a missed dose using the current leaflet. Do not copy another person's dose escalation schedule.
Digestive adverse effects can occur, and important risks also depend on other medicines and health conditions. Severe persistent abdominal pain, inability to keep fluids down or sudden vision changes need prompt professional assessment. This is not a complete warning list; the prescriber and medicine leaflet guide action.
Supplements are not a medicine replacement
Lean, Therm, C9 and aloe drinks are not alternatives with the same action, and a need to combine them with Ozempic has not been established. No catalogue product is selected here. Assess nutrition support and possible deficiencies separately with the team without delaying prescribed treatment or stopping medicine yourself.
