Did I take my dose??

Has anyone noticed a difference between pinning at night vs morning? I've heard night's better because you sleep through side effects, but also that morning gives you suppression all day. What's everyone's experience?
 
Taking dose increases before bed is the clearest way to sleep through the worst of the side effect window - by morning most of it has passed.
 
The isopropyl alcohol sniff technique has clinical backing for nausea - the olfactory pathway appears to interrupt the nausea signal. Rubbing alcohol pad or sanitizer cap works equally well.
 
Tracking app for injection days is the standard fix for ADHD and dosing - MyTherapy and a calendar entry both work. If the pen doesn't click properly at the site, the dose probably didn't go through.
 
Ozempic pens track dose delivery through the click count - that's actually one of the useful features for knowing whether a dose went in. If you're not sure, the conservative call is to wait until your next scheduled shot rather than doubling up. The half-life is long enough that missing one and resuming on schedule won't set you back significantly.
