VIAL CONCENTRATIONS
*Note that with the first vial, there is 0.25mg semaglutide / 5mg B6 / per 0.5ml (50 units) of medication. You can see above that as you move up in dosage, the amount of semaglutide in each 0.5ml (50 units) increases to match that dose, but the amount of B6 remains the same at 5mg. Each vial has a total of 2ml (200 units) so your dose is always 50 units. DO NOT INCREASE THE NUMBER OF UNITS YOU INJECT WHEN YOU MOVE UP FROM ONE DOSE TO THE NEXT.
DOSING
The standard dose with these vials is always 50units SC once a week, no matter the dose. The higher the dose, the higher the concentration of medication in those 50 units.
New patients not previously on an injectable weight loss medication will start at the 0.25mg for the first 4 weeks. You may then move up to the 0.5mg dose for the next 4 weeks, then 1mg for 4 weeks, etc. However, you do NOT have to move up in dosing until you are ready. If you are having successful weight loss on a certain dose, you do not have to move up. Also, if you are having significant side effects on a dose, you should spend another 4 weeks on your current dose before you move up.
***AGAIN, YOU WILL ALWAYS INJECT 50 UNITS NO MATTER WHAT DOSE OF SEMAGLUTIDE YOU ARE ON.***
