Isn't it too much Ozempic for the first time?

When starting treatment with Ozempic, it usually starts with an initial dose - i.e. 0.25 mg once a week. After 4 weeks, the dose should be increased to 0.5 mg once a week. After at least 4 weeks of taking a dose of 0.5 mg once a week, the dose may be increased to 1 mg once a week for further improvement in glycaemic control. After at least 4 weeks of taking a dose of 1 mg once a week, the dose may be increased to 2 mg once a week for further improvement of glycemic control. I would advise you to consult your doctor again to determine if you really have to start with the highest dose. Patients treated with Ozempic in combination with a sulphonylurea (Diaprel) may be at increased risk of hypoglycaemia. The risk of hypoglycaemia can be reduced by lowering the dose of the sulfonylurea when initiating treatment with Ozempic. Has the dose of Diaprel been reduced?
