How to never forget your weekly GLP-1 shot day
Short answer: fix one shot day, set a reminder on that day at a time you are usually home, and keep a visible countdown. Logging each shot right away means you can always check whether this week's shot is done.
Why weekly is easy to miss
- Seven days is long enough for routines to drift.
- Travel and busy weeks break the pattern.
What helps
- Pick a day tied to an existing habit (for example Sunday morning coffee).
- Set a reminder with a time you are reliably at home.
- Keep a countdown where you look every day, such as a home screen widget.
- Log the shot the moment you take it.
If you missed a dose
What to do after a missed dose depends on your medication. Check the patient leaflet and ask your pharmacist or doctor — do not guess.
