What is Ozempic?
Ozempic contains the active substance semaglutide, which is used to lower blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes.
The medication itself is a clear and colourless solution with a pH of 7.4. Ozempic is provided in a prefilled multi-dose disposable pen, which contains the drug solution, semaglutide, in a 1.5 mL or 3 mL cartridge; equivalent to 2 mg or 4 mg semaglutide.
For more resources, including a full list of the risks and benefits of Ozempic, please review the product monograph.
How does Ozempic work?
Ozempic belongs to the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists family of medications. It works by helping your body make more insulin when your blood sugar is high.
It’s important to note that you should follow any diet and lifestyle advice from your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse while using Ozempic.
What is Ozempic used for?
Ozempic is used for the once-weekly treatment of adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, to help improve their glycemic control.
This is usually done in combination with changes in dietary habits, as well as a regimen of regular exercise.
It’s very important to note that Ozempic is not a substitute for insulin.
How do you take Ozempic?
Ozempic is a subcutaneous injection, with one dose taken each week. When ordering Ozempic online, the injections come pre-loaded and ready for use.
The best places to inject Ozempic are on the top of the thighs, the front of the abdomen, and the upper arms.
What are the common side effects of Ozempic?
The most common Ozempic side effects include:
- Decreased appetite
- Weight loss
- Gas or bloating
- Abdominal pain or distension
- Heartburn
- Nausea or indigestion (dyspepsia)
- Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Vomiting
- Gastritis
- Diarrhea
- Dizziness
- Constipation
- Fatigue
Who shouldn't take Ozempic?
There are a number of patients that should avoid getting Ozempic prescriptions online, including those who are:
- Under the age of 18
- Over 65 years old
- Living with type 1 diabetes
- Living with diabetic ketoacidosis
- Living with a history (or family history) of thyroid tumors
- Living with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)
- Living with pancreatitis
- Living with diabetic retinopathy
- Pregnant or breastfeeding
It’s always a good idea to talk to your healthcare practitioner about your medical history and current conditions before requesting Ozempic online.

Frequently asked questions
Weight Loss
Canadians living with obesity – a BMI over 27 with additional health conditions, or a BMI over 30. Patients must be located in Canada to receive treatment and care.
Ozempill offers several types of treatment as prescribed by a licensed Canadian healthcare consultant. These treatments are used for long-term weight management.
Our program includes clinically-approved weight loss medications, educational resources, and the support you need.
We work with you to ensure you’re getting the appropriate treatment based on your goals, health, lifestyle, and any other factors that may impact your body size.
The program has an initial fee of $99, which is only charged if your visit is approved and you are eligible for a prescription.
You will have a monthly follow-up visit with your healthcare consultant to monitor your progress and make any adjustments to your treatment to make sure it is working for you. These follow-up visits cost $99 each. Once you achieve a steady-state, your visit schedule will change based on your healthcare consultant’s guidance.
Medication costs for the program are separate and will vary depending on the medication prescribed and your private insurance coverage. Without insurance, the prescription weight loss medication costs vary by medication from $300 per pen to approximately $500 per box in some cases.
Our program recognizes that biological factors have a significant impact on how people gain, lose, or maintain weight. Things like genetics, hormones, and metabolic rate play a key role that diet and exercise alone can’t always overcome.
By combining prescription medication, support and resources to make sustainable lifestyle changes, and access to experts, our custom program meets you where you are so you’re never alone while you work towards your goals.
Ozempill 101
Ozempill is Canada’s first truly integrated healthcare platform. We provide on-demand treatment for everyday health needs like weight loss, mental health, sexual health, and more. Founded in 2019, our digital-first approach to healthcare includes everything from diagnosis to prescription — all accessible from the comfort of home.
Anyone who is 18 years or older (16 or older for acne and birth control prescriptions), and is located in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, or Ontario. We cannot ship medication outside of these provinces at this time.
No. Ozempill provides a faster, hassle-free way for you to get a prescription for certain medications, but our service does not replace your primary care provider. For matters that extend beyond obtaining a prescription lifestyle medication safely and easily, we encourage you to consult your primary health consultant in person — whether for checkups, personal health concerns, or to inform them about the medications you are currently using.
Absolutely. Our online assessments have been designed to ask all the necessary questions required for diagnosis. We've worked with specialists to create an assessment process that can provide sufficient information for the healthcare consultant to determine whether or not you are eligible for a prescription and craft an appropriate treatment plan.
Call 911 or proceed to your nearest emergency room immediately. Ozempill is not intended for medical emergencies. Once the emergency has been addressed or resolved, contact your prescribing consultant to inform them of your experience as this may impact your current treatment plan.
Ozempill Online Visits
After creating an account, you will complete a medical assessment for evaluation by one of the Ozempill healthcare consultants.
During your assessment, you will have the opportunity to send your consultant questions via secure messaging.
In most cases, consultants will complete your assessment with secure messaging alone, but sometimes they may determine you require an audio or video visit and/or further diagnostic testing to help determine the best treatment plan for you.
If your consultant determines a prescription treatment is appropriate, they will approve your visit and write you a prescription. Our pharmacy will then ship your prescription to your home.
You’ll be able to message your healthcare consultant if you have questions about your medication or want to make changes to your treatment at any time.
No. We use an asynchronous telemedicine model so you can complete your online visit in your own time, and we save your progress so you can come back later to finish it.
If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare consultant may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.
Most assessments do not require a phone or video conversation. Once a consultant has reviewed the info in your assessment, they will respond to you via secure instant messages that you can access within your Ozempill account.
If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare consultant may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.
You can expect to receive a response from a healthcare consultant within 24 hours of submission. If you’ve been waiting longer than this, please email support@joinozempill.ca and we’ll look into it.
No. A prescription written by a licensed healthcare consultant is required for all medication currently provided through Ozempill’s service. If you already have a prescription with at least one refill remaining, you can transfer it to the Ozempill Pharmacy network.
Please email our Customer Support team at support@joinozempill.ca, and they will be able to assist you with the transfer.
Ozempill Shipping
Not long. After completing your assessment, a consultant will generally respond within 24 hours, and often much sooner.
The pharmacy will process and fill your prescription within 2-3 business days of your prescription approval date if there is nothing blocking them from doing so.
All packages are shipped via Express Post, which usually takes 2-3 business days. You will receive an email with your tracking number once your treatment has been shipped.
Absolutely. All Ozempill shipments arrive in a nondescript blister package so you can have your medication shipped wherever makes sense for you, as long as there is someone there to sign for it.
A signature upon delivery may be required.
There is currently no cost to have your medication sent to you from our Ozempill Pharmacy network.
Our pharmacy partners use Canada Post and FedEx for shipping.
Privacy and Security
Yes, your security is paramount to Ozempill’s mission. Personal health information provided during your medical assessment is strictly and legally confidential between you and the Ozempill healthcare consultant.
Beyond that, all your account information (including the medical assessment, credit card, and shipping information, etc.) is also stored safely and securely. Ozempill is compliant with all federal and provincial health privacy legislation. It is our duty to protect your data with comprehensive security infrastructure and stringent data policies to ensure it stays private and secure.
Yes! In Canada, only a licensed healthcare consultant can write a prescription, and only a registered pharmacist can fill that prescription. We are supported by leaders in the Canadian pharmacology and specialized medical fields. Ozempill adheres strictly to all the regulations set forth by all applicable Colleges of Pharmacists and Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons in which we operate.
Absolutely. All prescriptions obtained via Ozempill are provided by licensed Canadian healthcare consultants—the same as you would get at a hospital, doctor’s office, or clinic. These consultants do not provide prescriptions unless they deem it medically safe and appropriate to write them based on your medical profile and assessment answers. Our assessments have been crafted by the experts on our medical team. Finally, all Ozempill Pharmacies are provincially accredited just like any retail pharmacy.
Your privacy is our top priority. All your data is 256-bit SSL/TLS encrypted, and we take significant steps to keep your data secure.
Pricing and Payment
Ozempill charges a fee for the online visit, but only if and when you are approved by the healthcare consultant. In most cases, the fee is $40 but varies by treatment category. The visit fee includes a prescription valid for up to a year (depending on the condition) and ongoing support from the healthcare consultant or pharmacist.

We accept all major credit cards for any aspect of your treatment not covered by insurance or other financial support.
You will be charged for the online visit as soon as it is approved by the healthcare consultant. From there, and after your prescription is activated by the pharmacy, you will be charged the medication cost for each shipment based on your chosen refill schedule. If you have provided insurance or benefits coverage details, it will be applied according to your plan.
Ozempill Insurance
Medication coverage varies greatly between different insurance plans.
The good news is that if you are covered, Ozempill can bill your insurer directly and then ship your medications right to your door at no additional cost to you. We recommend that you upload your private and/or provincial benefit card during the online visit so that our pharmacy partner can apply any coverage you are eligible for before shipping your meds.
Insurance coverage for medications through Ozempill doesn't include the cost of your visit.
An Ozempill online visit is considered asynchronous since it is conveniently completed through a secure chat-based system. Currently, asynchronous visits are not covered by insurance or provincial health plans, so you will be charged a visit fee, depending on the category of treatment you are requesting.
Medication coverage varies greatly between different plans, provinces, and has specific criteria that determine eligibility. For private insurance, we recommend contacting your benefits administrator with your details, the Drug Identification Number (DIN), and the drug name to determine your coverage.
