What the leaflets say about a missed dose

accountsDose Club staffNew member

From the patient information leaflets, which are in every box and on the electronic medicines compendium at https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc.

Wegovy: if you are 5 days or less late with a dose, take it. If more than 5 days have passed, skip it and carry on with your usual day.

Mounjaro: take a missed dose within 4 days. If more than 4 days have passed, skip it.

Wegovy tablets: the leaflet covers a missed tablet separately, so check yours.

This is the leaflet wording in summary, for information. If you are not sure where you stand, your prescriber or pharmacist is the person to ask.

    Nothing in this thread replaces your own leaflet. The emc copy is the current version and the box copy is the one that shipped with your pen, so if they differ, ask your pharmacist which applies.

    The dose log in the app shows this wording for your own medicine on the dose screen, with a link to the leaflet, so you do not need to remember which number applies to you.
