Of Ozempic In Nigeria Is Fake

NAFDAC has never registered Ozempic. Every pen sold in Nigeria is counterfeit — reconstituted powder in generic devices with fake labels, sold at 10–100x the real cost.

NAFDAC Registrations

Maximum Price Markup

Sellers reconstitute semaglutide powder themselves without sterile controls, fill generic pen devices, attach counterfeit labels, and sell them with no cold-chain handling. This is dangerous.

Affordable

Know the Science Behind
GLP-1 Weight Loss Therapies

Ozempic is just a brand name. The active ingredient is semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. There is also tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist used in medications like Mounjaro®. Understanding these ingredients helps you make informed decisions with your healthcare provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Ozempic (branded semaglutide by Novo Nordisk) is not registered with NAFDAC and cannot be legally sold in Nigeria. Any "Ozempic" for sale here is counterfeit, illegally imported, or relabeled semaglutide in a fake pen.
Ozempic is a brand name. Semaglutide is the active pharmaceutical ingredient. It's like the difference between "Panadol" and "paracetamol" — same medicine, different name. Compounded semaglutide contains the same molecule that makes Ozempic effective.
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro® and Zepbound®. Published clinical research shows it produces significantly greater weight loss than single-agonist GLP-1 therapies. It works on two receptors (GIP and GLP-1) instead of one. Both are legitimate options — consult a healthcare provider to determine which is right for you.
Legitimate sellers should provide: pharmacy credentials, cold-chain handling proof (temperature logs), transparent pricing, and medical consultation. Any claim to sell "official" Ozempic in Nigeria is an immediate red flag — it doesn't exist here. Use the Seller Check tool above to evaluate your seller.
