Insert the needle at a 45 to 90 degree angle (90 degrees if you have adequate subcutaneous fat, 45 degrees if you are leaner)
So, for instance, in people without diabetes who are taking tirzepatide, along with making lifestyle changes, studies show about a 22 percent loss of body weight over a year, while those taking semaglutide typically lose around 14 to 15 percent
For semaglutide, it is recommended to stop treatment at least 2 months before a planned pregnancy
Essential supplies for your semaglutide injection Before your first semaglutide injection, gather your semaglutide pen (checking the expiration date), a new pen needle (never reuse needles!), an alcohol swab, a cotton ball or tissue (optional), and a sharps container for disposal
