Injection Technique Masterclass

Eight modules covering subcutaneous-injection technique end to end — for the first-time GLP-1 patient who wants more than the five-minute clinic walkthrough and less than a nursing-school textbook. Approximately 90 minutes of structured material plus per-module FAQ.

Modules

1. Pre-injection setup. Hand hygiene, surface prep, supply checklist, medication inspection. The seven things that go wrong before the needle ever leaves the packaging.
2. Site selection. The three documented subcutaneous zones (abdomen, anterolateral thigh, posterior upper arm) per Frid et al. 2016 — when each is appropriate, when each is contraindicated, the rotation log that prevents lipohypertrophy.
3. Gauge and length. 32G × 4 mm vs 31G × 5 mm vs longer needles in lean individuals. The dose-completion data behind the 5–10-second-dwell rule.
4. Pinch vs stretch. The two-finger pinch described in the Forum for Injection Technique recommendations, and when stretching is appropriate instead.
5. Pen-platform walkthrough. Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound — dose-dial confirmation, prime step, dose delivery, the 5–10-second dwell. What changes between platforms and what stays the same.
6. Reconstitution flow (vial-and-syringe arm). For the patients on compounded protocols — BAC-water draw, target concentration, syringe-unit conversion. Cross-links to the Reconstitution Math course for the full math arc.
7. After-injection care. What is normal in the first 24 hours, what to record in the site log, what patient-experience reports tell us about the first-eight-weeks course.
8. Red-flag list. The CDC + IDSA-derived list of injection-site signals that warrant same-day prescriber contact, the anaphylaxis warning signs in the GLP-1 prescribing information, the lipohypertrophy progression patterns to escalate.

What this course is not

• Not a prescription tool. We do not advise on whether a medication is right for you — that is your prescriber.
• Not a route to obtain medication. Course modules cite published prescribing information and trial protocols; they do not link to telehealth providers, compounded-pharmacy retailers, or peptide vendors.
• Not a replacement for the in-clinic walkthrough. The course complements the prescriber's instructions; it does not override them.

Enrollment

Course enrollment opens at public launch. Until then, the InjectCompass newsletter is the path to early-access pricing. No pre-orders, no subscriptions; you pay once when the course ships, and access is lifetime.
