How to use the log

Print it, fill in the three boxes at the top, and keep it with your supplies. Pick the weekly layout for a once-weekly pen or vial and the daily layout for a daily injection.

  1. Copy the medication, the concentration if you use a vial, and the dose and schedule exactly as prescribed.
  2. After each injection, write the date, the dose in mg, the units drawn if you use a syringe, and the site code.
  3. Move to a different site next time, in the order on the diagram or any order your instructions give.
  4. Use the notes column for anything you would want to mention at your next appointment, such as nausea that lasts or a lump at a site.

How should you rotate injection sites?

Change the spot with every injection. The Zepbound instructions say you may stay in the same body area as long as you pick a different spot within it, and MedlinePlus puts a number on that: at least 1 inch from the last injection. Staying in one place can build up a rubbery thickening of the fat called lipohypertrophy, and absorption from those lumps is unpredictable. The site codes on the log make it easy to see where you went last.

What if you miss a dose?

Leave the row blank or write "missed" with the date, then follow the rule for your own drug, because each label has its own. Tirzepatide's is in the tirzepatide dosage chart. An honest gap in the log tells your prescriber more than a tidy one.

What should prompt a call?

Spreading redness, warmth, red streaks, pus or a fever are reasons to contact your prescriber, as are worsening pain and a firm lump that does not fade over a week or two. Hives, swelling of the face or throat, or trouble breathing are an emergency. Used needles go straight into a sharps container.

Questions people ask

Does this tracker store my doses anywhere?
No. It is a blank sheet you print and fill in by hand. Nothing you write leaves the paper.
Which injection sites does the chart use?
The ones in the FDA-approved instructions for the GLP-1 pens and vials: the abdomen at least 2 inches from the belly button, the front of the thighs, and the back of the upper arms (usually given by someone else). Your own product instructions may differ; follow them.
Why rotate injection sites?
Product labels tell users to change the injection site with each dose. Using the same spot repeatedly can cause lumps or skin changes under the skin that may affect how the medicine is absorbed.
