I have been injecting myself with liraglutide (Victoza 1.8) for about a month and I have started to notice small red circles appearing that itch. What should I do?

If you are experiencing red circles that itch after injecting liraglutide (Victoza 1.8), it could be a normal reaction. It is recommended to apply ice (10 minutes per hour for 2 hours a day) and a cortate cream (hydrocortisone 0.5%) on the affected area twice a day, if the redness is less than 5 cm wide.
