Wegovy pill side effects log: how to note what you feel
To log Wegovy pill side effects, write down what you noticed, the date and time, how strong it felt on a simple scale and how long it lasted, next to the time you took your pill. Your medication guide and prescriber are the right place for questions about what a side effect means.
Why a side effects log helps
Memory blurs quickly. A week later it is hard to say whether something happened on day two or day five, or whether it was better or worse than before. Short notes with dates turn a vague feeling into a clear timeline you can show at your next appointment.
What to write for each entry
Note what you felt in your own words, such as an upset stomach, tiredness or a headache. Add the date, the time it started, how long it lasted and a strength from one to five. One line is enough. If nothing happened today, a quick "nothing new" note is useful too, because good days are part of the pattern.
Add the context around it
Side effects are easier to understand next to the rest of your day. Log the time you took your pill, roughly when and what you ate, how much you drank and how you slept. Over a few weeks you may notice patterns worth asking about. The log shows the pattern; your prescriber explains it.
When to contact someone instead of just logging
A log is for keeping track, not for deciding what to do. The medication guide lists the side effects that need prompt attention. If something feels severe, new or worrying, contact your prescriber or seek care rather than waiting to write it down. Questions about how to take the pill always go to your prescriber.
