I forgot my weekly Ozempic — what do I do?

Asked by Paul, VA · 2026-03-12 · 93 helpful

Clinician answer

Per the FDA label: if it has been ≤5 days since the missed dose, inject as soon as you remember and resume your normal weekly schedule. If more than 5 days have passed, skip the missed dose entirely and inject on your next scheduled day. Never double up. If you are missing doses frequently, set a phone reminder for the same time weekly — steady weekly rhythm matters more than the specific day of the week.
