Selecting Your Injection Site
GLPea shows a body map with recommended injection areas:
- Abdomen (stomach area)
- Thigh (front of upper leg)
- Upper arm (back of arm)
Why Site Rotation Matters
Rotating injection sites helps:
- Prevent skin irritation
- Ensure consistent medication absorption
- Avoid developing hard lumps under the skin
GLPea remembers your previous sites and highlights where you injected last to help you rotate properly.

After Logging
Once you log a dose, GLPea:
- Updates your next dose countdown
- Records the injection in your dose history
- Marks the injection site for rotation tracking
- Schedules your next reminder (if enabled)
Logging a Past Dose
Forgot to log immediately? No problem:
- Tap Log Dose
- Before confirming, tap the date/time
- Select when you actually took the injection
- Complete the logging
Backfilling History
If you're starting GLPea mid-treatment, you can log past doses to build up your history. Just adjust the date when logging each one.
