I work in a clinic that gives Semaglutide injections. We were taught to inject below the navel to avoid nausea. And not prefill your syringes. Also to change the needle after filling, filling will dull the needle and it will hurt slightly more.
Just called my pharmasist about something I saw in this video. In the video, person is prefilling the needles to be used later. Pharmacist I talked to said this is not ok because when it leaves the vile, there's risk of exposure to air and can cause problems if you leave the needle out.
What do you do when your hands are shaking?? I just did my first injection and was so nervous my hands were shaking the whole time. I got it done but the shakey made it harder. Hopefully it gets easier each week, I've never done home injections before except when taking my blood sugar but that was a button so it was easy.
just from watching other videos, i think a step was missed. I think you are suppose to pull the needle with the amount of dosage first before putting in the vile. Then inject the air in the vile, then pull the medicine. This gives the vile the air pressure it will lose.
Mine come in 4 syringes, prepped and I freeze them, take one out 30 mins before I inject. I use my thigh so I don't get too sick by injecting in the stomach. That was the suggestion my pharmacist told me
I heard if you inject in your thigh you can potentially become nauseous but if in another area like your leg, you can avoid that. Is that something you have heard?
I just did my first one last night. Didn’t hurt. But I think the liquid leak out a bit. My doctors office told me to count to 10 before removing the needle so I did but I think it’s still happened. I just wiped it off and wash my hands. That’s why I’m watching these videos now to see what I did wrong. Good luck hope it’s going well for you.
I was told that if it’s cold (straight out of the fridge) it burns. If you let it get a little room temperature it doesn’t burn. I take mine out before I take my shower and inject after and it takes the stinging out when injected.
That honestly depends on the concentration of the semaglutide in your vial and that depends on which pharmacy compounded it. But the "usual" starting dose of 10units should contain 0.25mg of semaglutide.
30 here, been on trt for almost 10 years now... I've never tried the cough but have been doing the other 2 as well as shaving the area and making sure I'm not going into a follicle or a blatant previous pin scar...

It is very unprofessional for nurse to have all those visible tattoos on your body!!! Im sure Florence Nightingale is turning over in her grave. These are they of nursing centering the work force.

Thank you!!! You are a God send.
How do you change the needle? I find mine is blunt after extracting it from the vial

Can you show how much is 0.25 on a 10 ml syringe?
standing here with a needle in my hand trying ti figure out how to do this lol

You can see she took in more and pushed it out
Appreciate the video.
How much of the needle needs to go into the skin? Thanks!
The entire needle

I inject in my stomach, and I become so sick I vomit what I ate the day before my injection
No example of insuring no air in vial?
Does it hurt? I’ve watch videos and nobody make faces or feel nervous or doubt about it! They just go straight and pinch!
I just did it. The needle is so tiny just feels like a pinch or almost like when you haven’t worn earrings in a while

I was told keep the full syringes in the frig😮 Should I put them in the freezer?
Freezer makes it last longer
@@OctoberGirl1971 literally everywhere online says don't freeze
@@adamincov literally on my prescription bag from my pharmacy and told via my doctor. You are to freeze it until you use
If semaglutide has to be kept refrigerated, then how does one travel with it?
A cooler with ice or ice pack
When I’m injecting myself, is there a reason why is burns, when the medication is going through?
I was told that if it’s cold (straight out of the fridge) it burns. If you let it get a little room temperature it doesn’t burn. I take mine out before I take my shower and inject after and it takes the stinging out when injected.
Make sure it's room temp and make sure to wait 15 seconds for alcohol to dry, otherwise it will sting
Thank you
What does look like 071 look in shringe
How much is 0.25 using diabetic syringes
does the shot hurt? I have never had a shot in the stomach
Answer! Please! We want to know!
no it doesn't hurt burns a little@@morenadaza1204
No, it doesn't hurt.
When I first started, it didn't hurt. I barely felt it, but now it does sting, I think cause I have less fat around my stomach
Can you tell me what 0.25 mg on ml syringe
How much is 0.25mg on insulin syringe
I believe 10 units- the amount she injected.
That honestly depends on the concentration of the semaglutide in your vial and that depends on which pharmacy compounded it. But the "usual" starting dose of 10units should contain 0.25mg of semaglutide.
@@tauschajohanson26crap I just took 25 units
@@tauschajohanson26so for Ozempic the actual brand Ozempic would 0.25 being the first month dose be 10 units?
You shouldn't put it in the freezer btw I hope you meant refrigerator

Are you happy with your TRT results?
@@adamglav honestly, yes. With my solid background of dieting and training. I'm 200lbs and look like a gladiator as most would say ,😅 but I believe my good genetics play a massive role
Can you show the thigh area I heard less nausea that way and that’s what I want to try
In the refrigerator or the freezer after they are prepped
Refrigerator, I don’t know why she said freezer, do not freeze these put them in the refrigerator
Do you insert quickly or slowly?
I think if you do it slowly is painfully than quick.
