Frequently Asked Questions

Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) is a new medication used to help manage blood sugar and promote weight loss.

What is Ozempic, and how does it work?
Ozempic (semaglutide) is a prescription drug primarily used to manage blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It works by mimicking a hormone called GLP-1, which helps control blood sugar, reduces appetite and slows digestion. Ozempic is also increasingly recognized for its effectiveness in promoting weight loss as a secondary benefit. It is a once-a-week injectable drug intended for easy self-administration.
Ozempic is approved for adults with type 2 diabetes to help control blood sugar, especially for those who are not getting adequate results with diet and exercise alone.Ozempic has shown promising effects on weight loss, making it an option for individuals with type 2 diabetes who are also trying to manage their weight. Our online assessment with healthcare professionals can determine if Ozempic is appropriate for your goals and health needs.
Ozempic weight loss results vary from person to person. In clinical trials, some people have lost 5-10% of their body weight within a few months, although individual results may vary depending on factors such as diet, exercise, dosage and personal metabolism. The weight loss effects of Ozempic are most significant when combined with lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet and regular physical activity.
Some patients begin to notice appetite suppression and mild weight loss within a few weeks of starting Ozempic treatment. However, significant weight loss and improvements in blood sugar generally become more noticeable after a few months of consistent use. Ozempic is intended for long-term treatment, a gradual process is typical.
Ozempic is given as an injection once a week using a pre-filled pen. It is usually a self administered injection under the skin in the abdomen, thigh or upper arm. We provide Instructions to show you how to use the pen and it is essential that you follow their instructions carefully. The injection can be given on any day of the week, but should be given at the same time each week.
The most common side effects of Ozempic include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and an upset stomach, especially during the first few weeks when the body is adjusting. These side effects often get better over time. Rare but serious side effects can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, and in some cases low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), especially when combined with other diabetes medications. It is important to report any side effects to your healthcare provider.
Although Ozempic is not licensed specifically for weight loss, it is safe for adults with type 2 diabetes, and many of them experience significant weight loss as a secondary effect. However, it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with a history of pancreatitis or some types of thyroid cancer. Our online assessment with medical experts is necessary to confirm whether Ozempic is suitable for your health profile.
Ozempic does not require a specific diet, but a balanced and nutritious eating plan will increase its effects on both blood sugar control and weight loss. We recommend focusing on a diet rich in whole foods, lean protein, healthy fats and fibre to support your health and get the most out of Ozempic.
Yes, Ozempic can often be taken with other diabetes medications, although combining it with blood sugar-lowering medications (such as insulin) may increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Always tell your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and over-the-counter products you use to ensure safe combinations and appropriate dosage adjustments.
Ozempic is intended for long-term use to help manage type 2 diabetes and promote weight loss. Many patients stay on Ozempic to maintain blood sugar control and weight management. However, the length of treatment depends on your individual needs and progress, and our healthcare professionals will help you determine the best schedule.
If you miss a dose of Ozempic, take it as soon as possible within 5 days of the missed dose. If more than 5 days have passed, skip the missed dose and continue with your usual weekly regimen. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed dose. Consistency with weekly doses is key to achieving optimal results.
Ozempic is licensed for blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes, not specifically for weight loss in people without diabetes. However, it has shown significant effects on weight loss, leading some healthcare providers to consider it off-label in obese patients. If you are interested in using Ozempic primarily for weight loss, start your online assessment with us to explore your options and our healthcare professionals will make an informed recommendation.
Ozempic affects blood sugar levels, which is why it is primarily prescribed to individuals with type 2 diabetes. In people without diabetes, the effects of Ozempic on blood sugar are usually mild, but should still be monitored, especially if there are pre-existing blood sugar concerns. Your healthcare provider will help you monitor any effects on your blood sugar and provide guidance based on your medical needs.
Alcohol can interact with diabetes medications, including Ozempic, potentially affecting blood sugar levels. While moderate alcohol intake is generally allowed, it is best to limit consumption and discuss any alcohol use with your healthcare provider to ensure safe use of Ozempic.
In addition to promoting weight loss, Ozempic is highly effective in controlling blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes. It has been shown to lower A1C levels (a measure of long-term blood sugar control) and may help reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes in people with type 2 diabetes. Ozempic can be a valuable tool for improving overall metabolic health.
