` Pancreatitis: Has been reported in clinical trials. Discontinue promptly if
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` pancreatitis is suspected. Do not restart if pancreatitis is confirmed (5.2).
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Diabetic Retinopathy Complications: Has been reported in a clinical trial.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Patients with a history of diabetic retinopathy should be monitored (5.3).
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Never share an OZEMPIC pen between patients, even if the needle is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
` Hypoglycemia: Concomitant use with an insulin secretagogue or insulin
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` may increase the risk of hypoglycemia, including severe hypoglycemia.
` Reducing dose of insulin secretagogue or insulin may be necessary (5.5).
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Acute Kidney Injury: Monitor renal function in patients with renal
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` impairment reporting severe adverse gastrointestinal reactions (5.6).
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions (e.g.,
`
`
`
`
` anaphylaxis and angioedema) have been reported. Discontinue OZEMPIC
`
`
`
`
`
` if suspected and promptly seek medical advice (5.7).
`
`
`

`
`
`
` WARNING: RISK OF THYROID C-CELL TUMORS
`
`
`In rodents, semaglutide causes dose-dependent and treatment-duration-dependent thyroid
`
`
` C-cell tumors at clinically relevant exposures. It is unknown whether OZEMPIC causes
` thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans as human
`
`
`
`
`
`
` relevance of semaglutide-induced rodent thyroid C-cell tumors has not been determined [see
`Warnings and Precautions (5.1) and Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)].
`  OZEMPIC is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or in
`
`
`
` patients with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) [see Contraindications
` (4)]. Counsel patients regarding the potential risk for MTC with the use of OZEMPIC and
`
`inform them of symptoms of thyroid tumors (e.g. a mass in the neck, dysphagia, dyspnea,
` persistent hoarseness). Routine monitoring of serum calcitonin or using thyroid ultrasound is
`
` of uncertain value for early detection of MTC in patients treated with OZEMPIC [see
`
` Contraindications (4) and Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
`
`
`
`
`
`
` INDICATIONS AND USAGE
`1
`
` OZEMPIC is indicated:
`  as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
`
`
`
`
`
` to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial
`
`infarction or non-fatal stroke) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established cardiovascular disease.
`
` Limitations of Use
`
`
`  OZEMPIC has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. Consider other antidiabetic
` therapies in patients with a history of pancreatitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
`
`
`
`
`
`  OZEMPIC is not indicated for use in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
`
`
`
`
`
`
` DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
`2
`
`
`2.1
`
` Recommended Dosage
`
`
`
`  Start OZEMPIC with a 0.25 mg subcutaneous injection once weekly for 4 weeks. The 0.25 mg dosage is
`
`
` intended for treatment initiation and is not effective for glycemic control.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`  After 4 weeks on the 0.25 mg dosage, increase the dosage to 0.5 mg once weekly.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` If additional glycemic control is needed after at least 4 weeks on the 0.5 mg dosage, the dosage may be
`
`increased to 1 mg once weekly.
`
`
`
`
`
` If additional glycemic control is needed after at least 4 weeks on the 1 mg dosage, the dosage may be
`
`
` increased to 2 mg once weekly. The maximum recommended dosage is 2 mg once weekly.
`
`
`
`
`
`  Administer OZEMPIC once weekly, on the same day each week, at any time of the day, with or without
`meals.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`  The day of weekly administration can be changed if necessary as long as the time between two doses is at
`
`
` least 2 days (>48 hours).

`
`

`

`
`
` If a dose is missed, administer OZEMPIC as soon as possible within 5 days after the missed dose. If more
`
`
`
` than 5 days have passed, skip the missed dose and administer the next dose on the regularly scheduled day.
`In each case, patients can then resume their regular once weekly dosing schedule.
`
`
`
`2.2
` Important Administration Instructions
`
`  Administer OZEMPIC subcutaneously to the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Instruct patients to use a
`different injection site each week when injecting in the same body region.
`
`
`
`
`
` Inspect OZEMPIC visually before use. It should appear clear and colorless. Do not use OZEMPIC if
` particulate matter and coloration is seen.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`  When using OZEMPIC with insulin, instruct patients to administer as separate injections and to never mix
`
`
`
` the products. It is acceptable to inject OZEMPIC and insulin in the same body region, but the injections
`should not be adjacent to each other.

`
`
` OZEMPIC is contraindicated in patients with:

`
`
`  A personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or in patients with Multiple Endocrine
` Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
`
`
`
`  A serious hypersensitivity reaction to semaglutide or to any of the excipients in OZEMPIC. Serious
`
`
`
`
`
`
` hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis and angioedema have been reported with OZEMPIC [see
`
`Warnings and Precautions (5.7)].
`
`
`
` 5
`
` WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
` 5.1
`
`
` Risk of Thyroid C-Cell Tumors
` In mice and rats, semaglutide caused a dose-dependent and treatment-duration-dependent increase in the
`
`incidence of thyroid C-cell tumors (adenomas and carcinomas) after lifetime exposure at clinically relevant
`
`
`
` plasma exposures [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. It is unknown whether OZEMPIC causes thyroid C-cell
`
` tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans as human relevance of semaglutide-induced
`
`
`
` rodent thyroid C-cell tumors has not been determined.
`
`
`
` Cases of MTC in patients treated with liraglutide, another GLP-1 receptor agonist, have been reported in the
`
` postmarketing period; the data in these reports are insufficient to establish or exclude a causal relationship
` between MTC and GLP-1 receptor agonist use in humans.
`
`
` OZEMPIC is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or in patients with MEN 2.
`
`
` Counsel patients regarding the potential risk for MTC with the use of OZEMPIC and inform them of symptoms
` of thyroid tumors (e.g., a mass in the neck, dysphagia, dyspnea, persistent hoarseness).

`

` Routine monitoring of serum calcitonin or using thyroid ultrasound is of uncertain value for early detection of
`
`
`
` MTC in patients treated with OZEMPIC. Such monitoring may increase the risk of unnecessary procedures, due
`
` to the low test specificity for serum calcitonin and a high background incidence of thyroid disease. Significantly
`elevated serum calcitonin value may indicate MTC and patients with MTC usually have calcitonin values >50
`ng/L. If serum calcitonin is measured and found to be elevated, the patient should be further evaluated. Patients
`
` with thyroid nodules noted on physical examination or neck imaging should also be further evaluated.
`
`
`
` Pancreatitis
` 5.2
`
`
` In glycemic control trials, acute pancreatitis was confirmed by adjudication in 7 OZEMPIC-treated patients (0.3
`
`
` cases per 100 patient years) versus 3 in comparator-treated patients (0.2 cases per 100 patient years). One case
` of chronic pancreatitis was confirmed in an OZEMPIC-treated patient. In a 2-year trial, acute pancreatitis was
`
`
` confirmed by adjudication in 8 OZEMPIC-treated patients (0.27 cases per 100 patient years) and 10 placebo-
`
`treated patients (0.33 cases per 100 patient years), both on a background of standard of care.
`
` After initiation of OZEMPIC, observe patients carefully for signs and symptoms of pancreatitis (including
`
`
`persistent severe abdominal pain, sometimes radiating to the back and which may or may not be accompanied
`
`
`
` by vomiting). If pancreatitis is suspected, OZEMPIC should be discontinued and appropriate management
` initiated; if confirmed, OZEMPIC should not be restarted.
`
`
`
` Diabetic Retinopathy Complications
` 5.3
`
`
`
` In a 2-year trial involving patients with type 2 diabetes and high cardiovascular risk, more events of diabetic
`
`
`
`
` retinopathy complications occurred in patients treated with OZEMPIC (3.0%) compared to placebo (1.8%). The
` absolute risk increase for diabetic retinopathy complications was larger among patients with a history of
`
` diabetic retinopathy at baseline (OZEMPIC 8.2%, placebo 5.2%) than among patients without a known history
`
`
` of diabetic retinopathy (OZEMPIC 0.7%, placebo 0.4%).
`
`
`
`
`
` Rapid improvement in glucose control has been associated with a temporary worsening of diabetic retinopathy.
`
`
`
` The effect of long-term glycemic control with semaglutide on diabetic retinopathy complications has not been
` studied. Patients with a history of diabetic retinopathy should be monitored for progression of diabetic
`
`
` retinopathy.
`
` Never Share an OZEMPIC Pen Between Patients
` 5.4
`
`
`
`
`
` OZEMPIC pens must never be shared between patients, even if the needle is changed. Pen-sharing poses a risk
` for transmission of blood-borne pathogens.
`
`
`
`
`
`
` 5.5 Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use of Insulin Secretagogues or Insulin
`
`
` Patients receiving OZEMPIC in combination with an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea) or insulin may
`
`
`
`
` have an increased risk of hypoglycemia, including severe hypoglycemia [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Drug
`
`
`
`
` Interactions (7)].
`
` The risk of hypoglycemia may be lowered by a reduction in the dose of sulfonylurea (or other concomitantly
`
`
`
`
` administered insulin secretagogue) or insulin. Inform patients using these concomitant medications of the risk
` of hypoglycemia and educate them on the signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia.
`
`
` Acute Kidney Injury
` 5.6
`
`
`
` There have been postmarketing reports of acute kidney injury and worsening of chronic renal failure, which
`
`
`
` may sometimes require hemodialysis, in patients treated with GLP-1 receptor agonists. Some of these events
` have been reported in patients without known underlying renal disease. A majority of the reported events
`
`
`
` occurred in patients who had experienced nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or dehydration. Monitor renal function
`
` when initiating or escalating doses of OZEMPIC in patients reporting severe adverse gastrointestinal reactions.

`

` 5.7 Hypersensitivity
`
`
`Serious hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylaxis, angioedema) have been reported in patients treated with
` OZEMPIC. If hypersensitivity reactions occur, discontinue use of OZEMPIC; treat promptly per standard of
`
`
` care, and monitor until signs and symptoms resolve. Do not use in patients with a previous hypersensitivity to
`
`
`
` OZEMPIC [see Contraindications (4) and Adverse Reactions (6.3)].
`
`
`Anaphylaxis and angioedema have been reported with other GLP-1 receptor agonists. Use caution in a patient
`with a history of angioedema or anaphylaxis with another GLP-1 receptor agonist because it is unknown
`
` whether such patients will be predisposed to anaphylaxis with OZEMPIC.
`
` Acute Gallbladder Disease
` 5.8
`
`
`
`Acute events of gallbladder disease such as cholelithiasis or cholecystitis have been reported in GLP-1 receptor
`
`
` agonist trials and postmarketing. In placebo-controlled trials, cholelithiasis was reported in 1.5% and 0.4% of
` patients-treated with OZEMPIC 0.5 mg and 1 mg, respectively. Cholelithiasis was not reported in placebo-
`
`
`
` treated patients. If cholelithiasis is suspected, gallbladder studies and appropriate clinical follow-up are
`
` indicated.
`
` ADVERSE REACTIONS
` 6
`
`
` The following serious adverse reactions are described below or elsewhere in the prescribing information:
`
`
`
`
`
` Risk of Thyroid C-cell Tumors [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
`
` Pancreatitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
`
`  Diabetic Retinopathy Complications [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]
`
`
`
` Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use of Insulin Secretagogues or Insulin [see Warnings and Precautions
`
`
`(5.5)]
`  Acute Kidney Injury [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]
`
`

`
`
`
` Clinical Trials Experience
`6.1
`
`
`
`
`
` Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the
` clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not
`
`
`
` reflect the rates observed in practice.
`
` Pool of Placebo-Controlled Trials
`
`
`
` The data in Table 1 are derived from 2 placebo-controlled trials (1 monotherapy trial and 1 trial in combination
` with basal insulin) in patients with type 2 diabetes [see Clinical Studies (14)]. These data reflect exposure of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` 521 patients to OZEMPIC and a mean duration of exposure to OZEMPIC of 32.9 weeks. Across the treatment
` arms, the mean age of patients was 56 years, 3.4% were 75 years or older and 55% were male. In these trials
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` 71% were White, 7% were Black or African American, and 19% were Asian; 21% identified as Hispanic or
` Latino ethnicity. At baseline, patients had type 2 diabetes for an average of 8.8 years and had a mean HbA1c of
`
`
`
` 8.2%. At baseline, 8.9% of the population reported retinopathy. Baseline estimated renal function was normal
`
`
` (eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73m2) in 57.2%, mildly impaired (eGFR 60 to 90 mL/min/1.73m2) in 35.9% and
`
`
`
` moderately impaired (eGFR 30 to 60 mL/min/1.73m2) in 6.9% of patients.
`
`
`
`
` Pool of Placebo- and Active-Controlled Trials
`
`
` The occurrence of adverse reactions was also evaluated in a larger pool of patients with type 2 diabetes
`
`
`
`
`
` participating in 7 placebo- and active-controlled glycemic control trials [see Clinical Studies (14)] including
`
` two trials in Japanese patients evaluating the use of OZEMPIC as monotherapy and add-on therapy to oral
`
`
`
`
`
` medications or insulin. In this pool, a total of 3150 patients with type 2 diabetes were treated with OZEMPIC

`

`for a mean duration of 44.9 weeks. Across the treatment arms, the mean age of patients was 57 years, 3.2%
` were 75 years or older and 57% were male. In these trials, 60% were White, 6% were Black or African
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` American, and 31% were Asian; 16% identified as Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. At baseline, patients had type 2
` diabetes for an average of 8.2 years and had a mean HbA1c of 8.2%. At baseline, 7.8% of the population
`
`
` reported retinopathy. Baseline estimated renal function was normal (eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73m2) in 63.1%,
` mildly impaired (eGFR 60 to 90 mL/min/1.73m2) in 34.3%, and moderately impaired (eGFR 30 to 60
`
`
`
` mL/min/1.73m2) in 2.5% of the patients.
`
`
`
` Common Adverse Reactions
`
` Table 1 shows common adverse reactions, excluding hypoglycemia, associated with the use of OZEMPIC in the
`
`
`
`
` pool of placebo-controlled trials. These adverse reactions occurred more commonly on OZEMPIC than on
` placebo and occurred in at least 5% of patients treated with OZEMPIC.

`
`
`
` In the pool of placebo- and active-controlled trials and in the 2-year cardiovascular outcomes trial, the types and
`
`
`
` frequency of common adverse reactions, excluding hypoglycemia, were similar to those listed in Table 1.
`
`In a clinical trial with 959 patients treated with OZEMPIC 1 mg or OZEMPIC 2 mg once weekly as add-on to
`
`metformin with or without sulfonylurea treatment for 40 weeks, no new safety signals were identified.
`
` Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions
`
`
` In the pool of placebo-controlled trials, gastrointestinal adverse reactions occurred more frequently among
`
`
`
`
`
` patients receiving OZEMPIC than placebo (placebo 15.3%, OZEMPIC 0.5 mg 32.7%, OZEMPIC 1 mg 36.4%).
` The majority of reports of nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea occurred during dose escalation. More patients
`
`
`
`
`
` receiving OZEMPIC 0.5 mg (3.1%) and OZEMPIC 1 mg (3.8%) discontinued treatment due to gastrointestinal
` adverse reactions than patients receiving placebo (0.4%).
`
`
`
` In the trial with OZEMPIC 1 mg and 2 mg, gastrointestinal adverse reactions occurred more frequently among
`
`
`
`
`
` patients receiving OZEMPIC 2 mg (34.0%) vs OZEMPIC 1 mg (30.8%).
`
`
`
` In addition to the reactions in Table 1, the following gastrointestinal adverse reactions with a frequency of <5%
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` were associated with OZEMPIC (frequencies listed, respectively, as: placebo; 0.5 mg; 1 mg): dyspepsia (1.9%,
` 3.5%, 2.7%), eructation (0%, 2.7%, 1.1%), flatulence (0.8%, 0.4%, 1.5%), gastroesophageal reflux disease (0%,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` 1.9%, 1.5%), and gastritis (0.8%, 0.8%, 0.4%).

`
` Hypoglycemia was more frequent when OZEMPIC was used in combination with a sulfonylurea [see Warnings
`
`
`
`
`
` and Precautions (5.5) and Clinical Studies (14)]. Severe hypoglycemia occurred in 0.8% and 1.2% of patients
` when OZEMPIC 0.5 mg and 1 mg, respectively, was co-administered with a sulfonylurea. Documented
`
`
`
` symptomatic hypoglycemia occurred in 17.3% and 24.4% of patients when OZEMPIC 0.5 mg and 1 mg,
` respectively, was co-administered with a sulfonylurea. Severe or blood glucose confirmed symptomatic
`
`
`
` hypoglycemia occurred in 6.5% and 10.4% of patients when OZEMPIC 0.5 mg and 1 mg, respectively, was co-
`
`administered with a sulfonylurea.
`
` Injection Site Reactions
`
` In placebo-controlled trials, injection site reactions (e.g., injection-site discomfort, erythema) were reported in
`
` 0.2% of OZEMPIC-treated patients.
`
`
`
` Increases in Amylase and Lipase
`
`
` In placebo-controlled trials, patients exposed to OZEMPIC had a mean increase from baseline in amylase of
`
`
`
` 13% and lipase of 22%. These changes were not observed in placebo-treated patients.
`
`
`
` Cholelithiasis
`
` In placebo-controlled trials, cholelithiasis was reported in 1.5% and 0.4% of patients-treated with OZEMPIC
`
`
`
`
`
` 0.5 mg and 1 mg, respectively. Cholelithiasis was not reported in placebo-treated patients.
`
` Increases in Heart Rate
`
` In placebo-controlled trials, OZEMPIC 0.5 mg and 1 mg resulted in a mean increase in heart rate of 2 to 3 beats
`
`
`
`
`
`
` per minute. There was a mean decrease in heart rate of 0.3 beats per minute in placebo-treated patients.

`

`
`
` Other adverse reactions with a frequency of >0.4% were associated with OZEMPIC include fatigue, dysgeusia
`
` and dizziness.
`
`
`
`
`
` Immunogenicity
` 6.2
`
`
`Consistent with the potentially immunogenic properties of protein and peptide pharmaceuticals, patients treated
`
`
` with OZEMPIC may develop anti-semaglutide antibodies. The detection of antibody formation is highly
` dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody
`
`
` (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay
`
`
` methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease.
` For these reasons, the incidence of antibodies to semaglutide in the studies described below cannot be directly
`
`
`
`
` compared with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products.
`
`
`
` Across the placebo- and active-controlled glycemic control trials, 32 (1.0%) OZEMPIC-treated patients
` developed anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) to the active ingredient in OZEMPIC (i.e., semaglutide). Of the 32
`
`
`
`
`
` semaglutide-treated patients that developed semaglutide ADAs, 19 patients (0.6% of the overall population)
` developed antibodies cross-reacting with native GLP-1. The in vitro neutralizing activity of the antibodies is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` uncertain at this time.
`
` Postmarketing Experience
` 6.3
`
`
`
` The following adverse reactions have been reported during post-approval use of semaglutide, the active
` ingredient of OZEMPIC. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it
`
`
`
`
` is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
`
`
`
` Hypersensitivity: anaphylaxis, angioedema, rash, urticaria.
`
`
` Hepatobiliary: cholecystitis, cholecystectomy
`
`
`
` 7
`
` DRUG INTERACTIONS
`
`7.1
`
`
`
`
` Concomitant Use with an Insulin Secretagogue (e.g., Sulfonylurea) or with Insulin
` When initiating OZEMPIC, consider reducing the dose of concomitantly administered insulin secretagogue
`
`
`
` (such as sulfonylureas) or insulin to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) and
`
`
`
` Adverse Reactions (6)].
`
`
`
` 7.2 Oral Medications
`
` OZEMPIC causes a delay of gastric emptying, and thereby has the potential to impact the absorption of
`
`
` concomitantly administered oral medications. In clinical pharmacology trials, semaglutide did not affect the
`
` absorption of orally administered medications to any clinically relevant degree [see Clinical Pharmacology
`
`(12.3)]. Nonetheless, caution should be exercised when oral medications are concomitantly administered with
`
` OZEMPIC.

`
`
` USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

`
`
` Pregnancy

`
`
` Risk Summary
` There are limited data with semaglutide use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk for adverse
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
` developmental outcomes. There are clinical considerations regarding the risks of poorly controlled diabetes in
` pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations). Based on animal reproduct
