Description
Victoza Weight Loss Injection – 1.8mg/0.5mL
Victoza 0.6mg® works in 3 ways like the hormone GLP-1 (7-37)b to help control blood sugar. GLP-1 is normally released from your small intestine when you eat. It helps your pancreas produce more insulin and helps keep your liver from making too much sugar. GLP-1 also slows down the process of food leaving your stomach, which helps control your blood sugar levels after meals.

Victoza 0.6mg® can lead to significant side effects, such as:
Potential thyroid tumors, which may include cancer. Inform your healthcare provider immediately if you experience a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or shortness of breath, as these could be signs of thyroid cancer. Research involving rats and mice has shown that Victoza® and similar medications can cause thyroid tumors, including cancer. However, it is not confirmed whether Victoza® causes thyroid tumors or medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in humans.
Avoid using Victoza® if you or a family member have a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or an endocrine system disorder known as Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Who should not use Victoza®?
Do not use Victoza® if:
- you or any of your family have ever had MTC or if you have an endocrine system condition called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
- you are allergic to liraglutide or any of the ingredients in Victoza®.
Victoza Prescription
Victoza 0.6mg is injected once a day. It can be taken at any time during the day, with or without food. It’s best to get into a routine so you remember to take Victoza® at the same time every day.
Victoza® comes in a prefilled pen. Needles are sold separately and may require a prescription in some states. Your health care professional will teach you how to inject Victoza® before you use it for the first time. Also, be sure to check out the next section of this FAQ, “Using the Victoza® Pen.”
Inject under the skin of your stomach (abdomen), thigh, or upper arm. Do not inject the Victoza 0.6 mg dose into a muscle or vein.
Change (rotate) your injection site within the area you choose with each injection to reduce your risk of getting lumps under the skin (cutaneous amyloidosis). Do not use the same site for each injection.
Do not mix insulin and Victoza® together in the same injection.
You may give an injection of Victoza® and insulin in the same body area (such as your stomach area), but not right next to each other.
Do not share your Victoza® pen with other people, even if the needle has been changed. You may give other people a serious infection, or get a serious infection from them.
