    INFORMATION

    WEGOVY® FLEXTOUCH 0.25mg (Danish) Indications for Use

    WEGOVY® (semaglutide injection) is prescribed for chronic weight management in adults who have:

    • Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²)
    • Overweight (BMI ≥ 27 kg/m²) with weight-related health problems such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol.

    WEGOVY® mimics the hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which helps to control appetite and increase feelings of fullness. This medication should be used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to effectively manage weight.

    • Active ingredient: Semaglutide
    • Main action: Reduces hunger and increases satiety
    • Administration: Weekly subcutaneous injection (under the skin)

    WEGOVY® FLEXTOUCH 0.25mg (Danish) Dosage Information

    WEGOVY® FlexTouch is available in a pre-filled pen designed for once-weekly use. The treatment starts at a low dose that is gradually increased over 16 weeks to the target maintenance dose.

    • Starting dose: 0.25 mg once weekly
    • Dose escalation:
      • Weeks 1-4: 0.25 mg
      • Weeks 5-8: 0.5 mg
      • Weeks 9-12: 1 mg
      • Weeks 13-16: 1.7 mg
      • Maintenance dose (after Week 16): 2.4 mg weekly
    • Injection sites: Upper arms, thighs, or abdomen (rotating the injection sites to avoid injecting into the same area repeatedly).

    The pen is pre-set with a single dose, and the needle is covered, making it easy to use. Once the needle cover is pressed against the skin, the medication is automatically administered. Patients should always follow their healthcare provider’s instructions.

    • Steps for injection:
      1. Prepare the pen: Check the solution is clear and colorless. Do not use the pen if it appears cloudy or has passed its expiration date.
      2. Select an injection site: Upper arms, thighs, or abdomen, avoiding the same spot as the previous injection.
      3. Inject: Press the pen against the skin, and the injection will start automatically. Hold it in place until the yellow bar stops moving, indicating the dose is complete.
      4. Disposal: Safely dispose of the pen and needle in a puncture-resistant container.
