That doesn’t mean the existing drug can’t be sold as a generic.

Sometimes it means exactly that: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4968089/

Of course you could still sell the same drug if you get it approved with a different dosage but that is a long and costly process.

In this case, is there a dosage patent on ozempic’s current dosage? If manufacturers tweak ozempic’s current dose and get a patent, what’s to stop the existing dosage from being made by generics?

I really don't think you're being skeptical enough.
