How Do I Take Semaglutide (Wegovy)?

Semaglutide (Wegovy) is taken by injecting the medication under the skin of your stomach, thigh, or upper arm using a special pen device. It’s important to rotate your injection site each week and avoid injecting the medication into tender, bruised, red, or hard skin. To properly inject Wegovy, you can follow these steps:

1. Remove the cap from the pen device
2. Push the pen firmly against your skin and hold it until the yellow bar stops moving
3. You will hear two clicks: one when the injection begins and another while the injection is in progress
4. Once the yellow bar has stopped moving, remove the pen from your skin
5. Dispose of your Wegovy pen in an FDA-cleared sharps disposal container
