Click counting is the act of using the clicks on the pen to achieve doses between the dose markings that are on the Ozempic (GLP-1 semaglutide injection) pen itself. Usually, the pen only comes in the following marked doses: 0.5 mg (0mg/0.25mg/0.5mg) and 1 mg (0mg/0.5mg/1mg).

The following chart will help in administering doses based on clicks.

Common Questions

Questions about click-counting to administer Ozempic (semaglutide):

Should I use click-counting to administer all of my injections?

It can be a helpful way of ensuring that you’re not administering too high of a dosage, which could cause an increase of the onset side effects of Ozempic, including nausea, heartburn caused from digestive issues, and other side effects that can cause discomfort.

Should click-counting be the only method I use for my injections?

No. You should always look at the milligram of pen that you have (either 1mg or 0.5mg) and determine the appropriate dosage based on the administration schedule that your primary care provider should have given to you.

If you do not have a dosage schedule, contact your local primary care provider before administration to ensure that you’re injecting the correct amount.
