Question

How to spot fake Ozempic or Wegovy pens

✓Last reviewed · Written by Dr. George Grunberger · Medical review: pending — clinician review in progress · How we review

Short answer

Buy only from licensed pharmacies, check that the label, lot number and expiry are intact and match the box, and report anything unusual. Pens sold without a prescription, through social media or WhatsApp, or labeled for another country are red flags. Report suspected fakes to FDA MedWatch or Health Canada.

General information based on official labels. Your prescriber or pharmacist can advise on your situation.
