Smaller Meals, More Often Big meals can feel like too much - especially early on
Side Effects The most common side effects during the first week include mild nausea, bloating, constipation, or a general off feeling in the stomach

Strategies for managing gastrointestinal side effects: Eat smaller, more frequent meals : Rather than three large meals, consume five to six smaller portions throughout the day Avoid high-fat and spicy foods : These can exacerbate nausea and slow digestion further Stay well-hydrated : Drink water regularly throughout the day, particularly if experiencing diarrhoea or vomiting Maintain consistent timing : Administer Ozempic on the same day each week, at any time of day, with or without food Avoid lying down immediately after eating : Remain upright for at least 30-60 minutes after meals For injection site reactions: Rotate injection sites systematically (abdomen, thigh, upper arm) Use proper injection technique as demonstrated by your diabetes nurse Apply a cold compress if irritation occurs Inspect the solution before use - it should be clear and colourless General management principles: Gradual dose escalation is fundamental to tolerability
