Wegovy tracker: doses, jab days and your step-up plan

Guide - Wegovy is the weight loss brand of semaglutide, taken as a weekly injection

Short answer: Wegovy is a once-weekly injection with a five-step dose escalation, typically moving up roughly every 4 weeks under your prescriber's plan until the maintenance dose. A good tracker handles four jobs: remind you on jab day, carry the right dose for your current step, remember your injection sites, and keep the weight and side effect record your reviews depend on.

What makes Wegovy tracking slightly different

  • The step-up ladder is long. Wegovy commonly climbs through several strengths (0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.7 and 2.4 mg) with weeks at each step, so "which step am I on and when does it change" stays a live question for months.
  • Semaglutide's half-life is about 7 days. Each jab lands as the last one fades, and levels build gradually over the first weeks. That build-up is why the early weeks can feel different from month three, and why an estimated level curve makes the experience less mysterious.
  • Supply gaps happen. Pharmacy stock issues can force a pause. When that happens, your prescriber's advice may depend on exactly how long the gap was, which only a dated record can answer.
  • Same rotation rules as any weekly jab. Stomach, thigh or upper arm, alternating sides, never the same spot two weeks running.

What to record from the first jab

  1. Every dose: date, time, strength and injection site, logged at the moment you inject
  2. Your starting weight, then a regular weigh-in cadence so the trend is real
  3. Side effects with the day they happen, so patterns against jab day are visible
  4. Each step change date, because reviews always ask how long you have been on the current dose

How PepLevel handles it

Add Wegovy in PepLevel, enter the step plan your prescriber gave you, and pick your jab day. Reminders arrive with the correct strength for your current step, the rotation grid suggests the next injection site, and weight and side effects sit on the same timeline as your doses. If a supply gap forces a pause, the record shows exactly when the last dose was, and the doctor export summarises everything for your next review. It works the same for Ozempic and Rybelsus users, and switching medications keeps your full history.
