| What is safest place to buy that isn’t a pharmacy? Generic fine. I’m over weight and can get approved but can’t figure out what website to buy from. Also what to expect first 2 weeks in terms of side effects? |

| The only side effects I've had is that I eat less because I feel full sooner, and lose weight. No other issues (am on week 22 |

I don’t understand your question. You have to buy it at a pharmacy. It’s a prescription drug. It is to available in a generic. I bet novo has the patent for another 10 years at least. It’s never going to be available over the counter or at some random website.
And no you won’t be approved for ozempic because you are overweight. Your statement is funny🤣 |

You can buy from Amazon’s pharmacy. It will be delivered right to your home. It can make you really tired when you begin taking it and when you increase your dosage. The typical increase is 4 weeks at 0.25, then 2 weeks at 0.5 and then you can begin at 1.0. I was on 1.0 for months and finally moved up to 2.0. Constipation is another side effect. Make sure you drink a lot of water. I’ve never thrown up or had any other significant GI issues. |

| Hi I see all these websites like vita etc that you pay 600-800 dollars for and get the generic. Are those a scam? I probably won’t get insurance covered. |

Go to your doctor for the prescription and get it from a pharmacy. Some weight loss clinics will do the shots there.
I had very few side effects other than not eating much. Be careful you don't undereat, because that's what can make you tired/weak. |

Hi OP, a relatively easy process is to book a consultation with IVIM health, a telehealth provider. They do supply compound semaglutide (generic Ozempic) and it’s about $300 a month

Do they sell real semaglutide or one of thevrelated compounds like semaglutide sodium and semaglutide acetate? It's not on their FAQ. |

| Friend, there is no generic. |

Its a prescription medication that is still under both patent protection and FDA market exclusivity and will be for the foreseeable future. Meaning there is no generic available and there will not be for several years.
People have been taking compounded semaglutide salts but that is rapidly going away as they are not compounded legally and state boards of pharmacy are beginning to crack down. Bottom line, you have to get it at a pharmacy. There is no cheap shortcut on this one. |

Yes, generic semaglutide (not Ozempic) is available for the time being through compounding pharmacies. |

No, those are not generic version of Ozempic. They are unregulated, untested, non-FDA approved God knows what. |

| Agree there is no generic. You need a pharmacy because you need a prescription. |

I used one of these for 5+ months. Lost not a pound. But it did fix my PCOS, horrible monthly cramps etc. so maybe it was working. Now I’m looking for mounjaro. Supposed to be much better. |
