Dose Track reminds you each morning to take your Ozempic tablet, logs it in one tap, and counts the tablets left in the bottle. Each step from 1.5 mg to 4 mg, and to 9 mg if your prescriber moves you up, is recorded from the day it starts.
Per the FDA label (2.2), Ozempic tablets start at 1.5 mg once daily for days 1–30, a dose the label says is not effective for glycemic control, then 4 mg once daily for days 31–60. From day 61, the label's schedule either stays at 4 mg or increases to 9 mg if additional glycemic control is needed.
| When | Dose on the label | Label note |
|---|---|---|
| Days 1–30 | 1.5 mg once daily | Starting (initiation) dosage; the label says it is not effective for glycemic control |
| Days 31–60 | 4 mg once daily | Escalation dosage |
| Day 61 onward | 4 mg once daily, or 9 mg once daily | Stays at 4 mg if no additional glycemic control is needed; 9 mg if additional glycemic control is needed |
Ozempic tablets are a daily medication in Dose Track, with one reminder at the time you take them. A new strength is recorded from the day you start it. Note that tablet and injection doses use different numbers: 4 mg of the tablet is not comparable to an injection dose.
Ozempic tablets come in bottles of 30, one strength per bottle (1.5 mg, 4 mg or 9 mg). Nothing to mix or draw up; what needs tracking is the time you take it and how many tablets are left.
| Product | Tablet strength | Pack | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ozempic tablets | 1.5 mg | Bottle of 30 tablets | White to light yellow, round, debossed "1.5" on one side and "novo" on the other |
| Ozempic tablets | 4 mg | Bottle of 30 tablets | White to light yellow, round, debossed "4" on one side and "novo" on the other |
| Ozempic tablets | 9 mg | Bottle of 30 tablets | White to light yellow, round, debossed "9" on one side and "novo" on the other |
Each row is something worth writing down for Ozempic tablets, why it matters for this medicine, and what Dose Track does with it.
| What to track | Why it matters | In Dose Track |
|---|---|---|
| Morning dose | The label gives one tablet once daily on an empty stomach in the morning with up to 4 ounces of plain water, swallowed whole, then 30 minutes before food, drink or other tablets. | A daily reminder at your time; log the tablet in one tap. |
| Dose steps | The label goes 1.5 mg for 30 days, then 4 mg, with 9 mg as an option from day 61. | Record each new strength from the day it starts; earlier days keep their dose. |
| Tablets left | Each bottle holds 30 tablets (3, 16). | Each logged tablet comes off the bottle, with a run-out date and an order-by date. |
| HbA1c | Ozempic tablets are labeled for type 2 diabetes. | Upload a lab report and HbA1c is read out and shown next to your doses, against your own target range. |
| Side effects | Nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea and decreased appetite were the most common reactions in the label's semaglutide tablet trials (6.1). | Quick picks for GLP-1 side effects, with a severity and notes. |
| Reaction | Placebo (N=362) | Semaglutide tablets 7 mg (N=356) | Semaglutide tablets 14 mg (N=356) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nausea | 6% | 11% | 20% |
| Abdominal pain | 4% | 10% | 11% |
| Diarrhea | 4% | 9% | 10% |
| Decreased appetite | 1% | 6% | 9% |
| Vomiting | 3% | 6% | 8% |
| Constipation | 2% | 6% | 5% |
Per the label, the majority of reports of nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea occurred during dose escalation. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions overall occurred in 21% (placebo), 32% (7 mg), and 41% (14 mg), and led to discontinuation in 1%, 4%, and 8%, respectively (6.1).
Dose Track has quick picks for the side effects people on GLP-1 medicines log most: nausea, constipation, diarrhea, reflux or heartburn, tiredness, low appetite and headache. You can type in anything else, set how bad it was, and see it next to the dose step you were on.
Per the label, a missed dose is skipped and the next dose is taken the following day. The label also says not to take more than one tablet per day. (2.1)
A morning that was not logged shows as missed for that day in your history.
Dose Track is a tracking app, not medical advice. It records what you and your prescriber decide; it does not recommend doses. Check any dose change with your prescriber.
