New patients not previously on an injectable weight loss medication will start at the 0.25mg for the first 4 weeks (from another pharmacy). You may then move up to the 0.5mg dose for the next 4 weeks (from another pharmacy). You may then start the 1mg dose here. 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.

Patients should discard their vial after the 4th or 5th puncture and should generally use each vial within 30 days (maximum of 45 days) after first puncture.

.Joint Commission guidelines for proper use of many multi-dose vials include the recommendation to discard the vial 4 weeks after first puncture, even though the Beyond Use Date (BUD) may be longer. These guidelines are generally followed in office and hospital settings, particularly when the vial is used for multiple different patients. However, this same suggestion is made for vials punctured several times a day or only once a week. With certain vial sizes/doses/packages, using all of the medication in the vial without wasting any could result in a patient using the vial for longer than 28 days after first puncture. If you choose to use your vial longer than 28 days after first puncture due to package size or maintenance dosing, you must acknowledge that you understand the Joint Commission recommendations to discard the vial 28 days after first puncture, even if you only puncture the vial once a week. You will be using the vial at your own discretion.

If you have any concerns about this issue and for best safety practices, please choose a 4-week package and discard any medication leftover 28 days after first puncture.
