Questions for the prescriber or pharmacist

  1. Which pen presentation is right for the patient, and who will retrain us if it changes?
  2. What should we do if a weekly dose is missed, and how many days late is too late?
  3. Which fluid loss or dehydration signs should we report to you straight away?
  4. Should we check blood sugar more often if other diabetes medicines are taken?
  5. Do any other medicines need closer monitoring, given how semaglutide affects absorption?
  6. What symptoms of pancreatitis or thyroid problems should we report urgently?
  7. Who should we tell before any planned surgery or procedure that needs anesthesia?
