Good morning. I bought 0.25 mg of Ozempic. It's the first time I've met him. I checked the patency of the needle as it was in the manual. I gave the injection. The amount of medicine in the vessel did not change. Even the piston did not show. Can this be the case with the first administration of the drug?

In the case of Ozempic 0.25 mg, it is very difficult to see if the amount of solution in the pen has decreased, because there is more solution than the planned doses - the pen contains an excess of the drug.
Here we explain this point: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/20766/ozempic-dlaczego-po-4-dawkach-leku-ozempic-0-25-mg-w-penie-tloczek-jest-w-polow
If you checked the patency of the needle according to the instructions before administering the drug and then set the dose knob to 0.25 and administered the drug subcutaneously, it is very likely that the drug was administered correctly and the lack of visible loss of solution is due to the aforementioned excess resulting from production.
