Once you’ve removed the needle from your weight loss injection pen, dispose of it safely in a sharps box or you can refer to the MOH guidelines on proper disposal of sharps.

• GLP-1 injection pens may be stored at room temperature for up to 30 days and away from heat and direct sunlight.
• Don’t freeze the injection pens. Pens that have been frozen must not be used.
• After you have dispensed your dose and thrown away the needle safely, remember to cap your pen back so that there isn’t any degradation of the medication.
• Never inject the pen if the expiration date has passed.
• Never share your pen or needle with anyone else.
• Always use a new, sterile needle for each injection.
• Don’t attempt to refill the pen yourself. It’s a single-use device.
• Make sure to throw away used pens after 30 days even if they still have solution left in them.

Yes, it is safe. The weight loss medication uses the pharmcotheraphy approach and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The weight loss medication is self-administered via an injection pen.

You have the option to inject the medication into your abdomen (stomach area), thigh, or upper arm, as advised by your doctor based on your individual needs. Ensure you do not inject into a vein or muscle.

Minmed’s medical professionals will walk you through the injection process step-by-step, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable administering it yourself.

Our weight loss injection pen administers a medication that mimics a natural hormone in your body known as GLP-1. This hormone helps regulate appetite and blood sugar levels.

The weight loss medication works by reducing cravings and increasing feeling of satiety, leading to a reduction in calorie intake.

Learn how the pen works

During your initial consult, we need to understand your weight history and any medical conditions you may have. There can be various underlying reasons for obesity. A face-to-face consult allows us to explore and discuss any secondary causes of your weight gain, ensuring a comprehensive approach to your weight loss journey. This helps us tailor the best weight loss plan for you.

We’ll perform a thorough examination and record important baseline measurements like your blood pressure (BP) and body mass index (BMI). These measurements help us track your progress and ensure your safety throughout the treatment.

Starting the GLP-1 weight loss injectable involves using a pen injector. We’ll walk you through how to use the pen correctly and how to dispose of sharps safely.

Your doctor may also discuss non pharmacological weight management.
