What is the maximum dose of ozempic for weight loss?

A friend of mine is considering Ozempic for weight loss, and he asked me if I knew about the maximum dosage. I don't know much, so thought I'd ask here. What's the highest dose for weight loss with Ozempic?

With PCOS, weight loss is so tricky, so I get why you are asking about the max dose, which is usually 2.4 mg. But these hormones can affect everyone differently. Please work with a good endocrinologist instead of self-medicating.

I am too tired to even look at my own weight, but from what my doctor friend mentioned, the max dose is around 2.4 mg weekly. Don't go trying that on day one unless you want to spend your night hugging the toilet seat instead of sleeping!

I totally get it, struggling with weight can be so emotionally exhausting and frustrating. The maximum dose is generally 2.4 mg, but your body needs time to adjust to it slowly. Please take care and discuss this with a supportive doctor.

Oh god, the struggle with cravings is so real, I get it! The maximum dose of this injection is 2.4 mg, which basically shuts down your desire for those late-night momos. But seriously, start very low and let your doctor guide you.

I once messed up my own dosage of a prescription drug and faced bad kidney issues. The maximum dose for weight loss is 2.4 mg, but please do not jump to it. Go get your baseline blood tests done and let a doctor prescribe it.
