Recommended rotation strategy: Rotate between the three approved sites : abdomen, thighs, and upper arms Within each site, move the injection location by at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) from the previous injection Establish a systematic pattern for example, abdomen for week one, right thigh for week two, left thigh for week three, right arm for week four, then repeat Keep a written record or use a smartphone app to track injection sites and dates Avoid injecting within 5 cm (2 inches) of the navel, scars, moles, or the waistline Absorption considerations: Product information for GLP-1 medications indicates no clinically relevant differences in absorption between approved injection sites
GLP-1 RA use in complicated diabetes: There is no clear evidence regarding the use of GLP-1 RA in acute myocardial infarction, although the use of these agents is encouraged in patients with asymptomatic and stable coronary artery disease (CAD)
