Compounded semaglutide tracker: units, vials and refills

Semaglutide · vial and syringe · Checked

Dose Track saves your compounded semaglutide vial strength in mg/mL, shows the syringe units for the dose you log, and counts what is left in the vial. It reminds you on your shot day and tells you when to reorder, based on how long your pharmacy takes.

What schedule does compounded semaglutide follow?

Compounded semaglutide is not an FDA-approved product, so it has no label of its own. The Ozempic and Wegovy schedules describe the approved pens only. Your prescriber sets your dose and how it changes, and in Dose Track you log the dose your prescriber gave you, weekly on your shot day.

When your dose changes, record the new dose from the date it starts. Because the vial strength stays the same, the units to draw change with each new dose, and the app works that out for you.

What form does compounded semaglutide come in, and how many units do you draw?

Compounded semaglutide usually comes already mixed in a multi-dose vial at a set strength in mg per mL, drawn up with an insulin syringe. Some come as powder you mix yourself. The units you draw depend only on the strength on your vial label, which is why mix-ups happen: the same mg dose is a different number of units in a different vial.

Enter your vial's strength once in Dose Track, or the mg and water if you mixed it, and each dose you log shows its mL and syringe units, with a drawing of the syringe filled to the line.

Frequently asked questions

Can Dose Track tell me how many units of compounded semaglutide to draw?+
It converts the dose your prescriber gave you into units for your vial. Enter the vial strength in mg per mL (or the mg and water you mixed) and every dose you log shows its mL and units on a U-100 syringe.
Is compounded semaglutide the same as Ozempic or Wegovy?+
It has the same active ingredient, but it is not an FDA-approved product and has no label of its own. The Ozempic and Wegovy labels describe the approved pens only.
Does Dose Track remind me to reorder my vial?+
Yes. Set where you get it and how many days it takes to arrive, and the app shows the day to order by, based on the doses you actually log.
How do I log the dose my prescriber gave me?+
Add semaglutide, set a weekly schedule and enter your dose in mg. Log the dose your prescriber gave you each week; when it changes, record the new dose from the day it starts.
