Morning is an Ozempic tracker for iPhone. It logs each weekly Ozempic shot, or each daily Ozempic tablet, against the dose plan you and your clinician set, reminds you when a dose is due, remembers your last injection sites, and shows how nausea and appetite follow your shot through the week. It also scans your meals for protein, fiber and water and keeps your labs in context. Morning works in English and Spanish, and you can try it free for 7 days.
Key takeaways
- Ozempic (semaglutide, Novo Nordisk) is approved for adults with type 2 diabetes: to improve blood sugar, to lower heart risk in people with heart disease, and to lower kidney and heart risk in people with chronic kidney disease.
- The injection label starts at 0.25 mg once a week for 4 weeks, then 0.5 mg, with steps to 1 mg and 2 mg, each after at least 4 weeks, if more blood sugar control is needed.
- Ozempic tablets, taken once a day for type 2 diabetes, were announced as FDA-approved in February 2026 in 1.5 mg, 4 mg and 9 mg.
- In Ozempic's diabetes trials, nausea was reported by 15.8% on 0.5 mg and 20.3% on 1 mg vs 6.1% on placebo.
- Morning logs whatever dose plan you and your clinician set. It never recommends, changes or skips a dose.
- Morning is for iPhone, in English and Spanish, with a free 7-day trial.
What should you track on Ozempic, and why?
Track your doses, your injection sites, how you feel after each shot, what you eat, and the numbers your clinician watches. Ozempic is a diabetes medicine first, so labs like A1C matter alongside weight and side effects.
| What to track | Why it matters on Ozempic | How Morning helps |
|---|---|---|
| Each dose | The label steps the dose up after at least 4 weeks at each level, so the plan changes over months | Shot log against the dose plan you and your clinician set, with reminders when a dose is due |
| Injection site | The label lists the stomach, thigh and upper arm, and says to use a different site each week within the same area | Remembers your last sites so you can rotate |
| Nausea, appetite and energy | Gut side effects are the most common, and many people notice them in the days after a shot | Side-effect check-ins that show patterns around shot day |
| Protein, fiber and water | Eating less can mean too little protein and fiber; the label warns vomiting and diarrhea can lead to dehydration | AI food photo scan counts protein, fiber and water toward daily targets |
| Weight | A weekly trend is easier to read than daily swings | Weight and progress charts with Apple Health |
| Labs | Your clinician uses lab results to decide whether a step-up is needed | Lab results shown in context, plus a doctor report for appointments |
| Signs of low blood sugar | The label warns of a higher risk if you also take insulin or a sulfonylurea | Side-effect check-ins and a doctor report so you can raise it with your clinician |

What is the Ozempic dose schedule on the label?
The Ozempic injection label starts low and steps up only if more blood sugar control is needed. One dose a week, on the same day each week, at any time of day, with or without meals. Your prescriber sets your plan; Morning logs it.
| Step | Once-weekly dose on the Ozempic injection label |
|---|---|
| Weeks 1 to 4 | 0.25 mg (starting dose) |
| From week 5 | 0.5 mg |
| After at least 4 weeks on 0.5 mg, if more control is needed | 1 mg |
| After at least 4 weeks on 1 mg, if more control is needed | 2 mg (the maximum) |
For people with chronic kidney disease, the label describes moving to a 1 mg maintenance dose after at least 4 weeks on 0.5 mg. You can see this schedule next to the other GLP-1 labels in our titration schedules tool. For missed doses, switching or stopping, follow your prescriber and the label.
What are Ozempic tablets?
Ozempic tablets are a once-daily pill form of semaglutide for adults with type 2 diabetes. Novo Nordisk announced the FDA approval in February 2026. They share a label with Rybelsus, but the label says the two are not interchangeable milligram for milligram.
| Days | Once-daily dose on the Ozempic tablets label |
|---|---|
| 1 to 30 | 1.5 mg (starting dose) |
| 31 onward | 4 mg |
| After at least 30 days on 4 mg, if more control is needed | 9 mg |
The label says to take the tablet in the morning on an empty stomach with up to 4 ounces (120 mL) of plain water, and to wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking or taking other pills. That makes a daily reminder and a simple log useful. Morning tracks the tablet with the plan your clinician set, the same way it tracks the weekly shot.
What side effects are most common on Ozempic?
The most common Ozempic side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain and constipation. In the label's diabetes trials, nausea was reported by 15.8% on 0.5 mg and 20.3% on 1 mg, compared with 6.1% on placebo, and many people find these effects strongest after a shot or a dose increase. Low blood sugar is more likely if you also take insulin or a sulfonylurea. Our Wegovy and Ozempic side effects guide has the full picture, and the nausea guide has ideas for queasy days.
If you have severe stomach pain that will not go away (sometimes spreading to your back), cannot keep fluids down, have signs of very low blood sugar, notice a lump in your neck, or have signs of an allergic reaction, contact your clinician or seek urgent care.
What does the first month on Ozempic look like?
The first month on Ozempic is the 0.25 mg starting phase, before the label's first step to 0.5 mg. The slow start is there to lower the risk of gut side effects while your body adjusts.
| Week | Label dose | What many people notice | What to log in Morning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 0.25 mg | Appetite may soften within days; some feel little yet | First shot, site, starting weight and recent labs |
| Week 2 | 0.25 mg | Fuller sooner; mild nausea or fullness after the shot | Side-effect check-ins, protein |
| Week 3 | 0.25 mg | A rhythm starts to form around shot day | Fiber and water, energy |
| Week 4 | 0.25 mg | Clearer patterns before the first step-up | Doctor report for your appointment |
| Week 5 | 0.5 mg per label | Side effects can come back for a few days after the new dose | Shot log at the new dose, check-ins |
These are common patterns, not a promise of how you will feel. Our first month guide goes week by week in more detail.
Why use an Ozempic-specific tracker?
Because on Ozempic the useful picture combines your doses, your side effects, your meals and your labs, and those usually live in four different places. Morning keeps them together, so you can see that nausea follows your shot by a day, that it came back after the move to 1 mg, or that your protein dips on low-appetite days.
That record is what makes appointments easier. The doctor report puts your doses, side effects, weight and labs on one page. If you ever switch medicines, Morning also supports Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound and others; our GLP-1 tracker app guide covers the whole app.
How Morning helps
Morning logs every Ozempic shot or tablet against the dose plan you and your clinician set, sends reminders when a dose is due and remembers your last injection sites. Side-effect check-ins show whether nausea clusters around shot day or after a step-up, the AI food photo scan counts protein, fiber and water, and your lab results sit next to your progress. Ask Sunny, your companion, answers food and side-effect questions any time and never gives dose advice. Try it free for 7 days on iPhone, in English or Spanish.

Questions
Is there an app to track Ozempic shots?
Yes. Morning is an iPhone app that logs each Ozempic shot against the dose plan you and your clinician set, reminds you on shot day and remembers your last injection sites. It also tracks side effects, food, weight and labs.
Can I track Ozempic tablets in Morning?
Yes. Morning logs whatever dose plan you and your clinician set, including the daily Ozempic tablets. It records the plan; it never tells you which dose to take.
