Hello, I have a question, I have been taking ozempic since January in April from a new pack, after I took one dose and had to stop going to the hospital for some time, the doctor told me to go back to ozempic and I have a question, can I still use the one I opened at the beginning of April?

According to the manufacturer's information, the shelf life from the first use of the drug is 6 weeks, with proper storage of the drug at a temperature below 30°C or in a refrigerator (2°C–8°C). Much more time has passed, so it is necessary to ask your doctor for a new prescription (or to continue the current one if it is a year old and you have any packages left) and to buy a new package of Ozempic in the appropriate dose at the pharmacy.
