  3. Is Rybelsus being used for any purpose my label does not list, such as weight loss?
  4. Does my medical history mean I need extra eye checks while on this medicine?
  5. What should I do if I notice a sudden change in my vision?
  6. Is Ozempic tablets a different product I should not swap with Rybelsus?
