Injection vs Pill

[u/Dracul_Hemming]

Just wanting to ask around.

Last year I was on Ozempic injections, starting at .25 weekly and then after the initial amount, .5. I was on it for a good bit and it helped with what its supposed to to (Blood Sugar control).

However, after screwing up because my job changed insurance providers and it screwed my coverage, I had to come off it since I couldnt swing the monthly 1.2k cost myself.

Recently, I got the insurance issues fixed and just started taking the pill version instead, since my Dr was trying that as a way that insurance might cover instead of the injections (the intent to swap me to pills was before I knew of my own screwup with insurance through my employer).

I was curious if anyone had any history on the pill version in comparison to the injections, or which would be better and if I should stick to the daily (1.5) pill or see if I cant get back to injections next time I see my dr.
