Pen splitting on GLP-1 pens: what the Instructions for Use say, and the risks

General information, not medical advice. Talk to your prescriber or pharmacist about your own treatment.

Safety note first: the Instructions for Use for the Ozempic® pen and the Zepbound® KwikPen® say not to set a dose by counting clicks. Only take the doses your prescriber has told you to take, set exactly as your pen's Instructions for Use describe. Any click count, including the estimates Traxsy shows, is not a dosing instruction.
