Then you would only have one "dosage increase" available with the Ozempic (up to 1.0)

In 4 weeks you will get the full effect of the current dose but the Doc will still have one increase option available if that doesn't do the job but you are maxed out on the Jardiance.

It depends on what your final dosage needed will be.

Ozempic is increased in 4 week intervals - so 4 weeks on the "starter dose".

If that does the job then you stop there otherwise it's 4 weeks on the next step and then 4 weeks on the max dose.

So could take up to 16 weeks before you see full benefit which may or may not still leave you needing "something else".
