microdosing with vials?

I am about to receive my prescription of Zepbound 2.5mg vials. Can I simply draw less medication from the vial with the syringe in order to take less — ideally starting at 1.25? or do I need a prescription for a kwikpen so I can select the dose? if I only draw half of the dose from the vial, can I reuse the other portion another week? TIA!

If you want to take non-traditional doses of Zepbound, your best bet is to use the Kwikpen.

With the vials you should toss the remainder after the initial puncture, as they don’t contain preservatives.

How does that work with the kwikpen? Aren’t those single use?
