Leverkusen's midfield started to get more of a grip on proceedings after the interval, but chances for them remained at a premium.
In the 54th minute, Werder keeper Tim Wiese had to deal with a ferocious long-range effort from Tranquillo Barnetta. Werder's response was not long in coming. Diego freed up Oezil and the 20-year-old midfielder rifled his team in front from a tight angle.
Having gone behind, Bayer finally started to show glimpses of their attacking potential. In the 63rd minute Helmes just failed to connect with a low Michal Kadlec cross from the left.
Almeida forced another good save out of Adler in a 70th-minute breakaway, while four minutes later Arturo Vidal set up Kadlec for an effort that crept just wide of the post.
Leverkusen battled to the end, with Stefan Kiessling going close on a couple of occasions as the clock ran down, but were left to regret an overly-passive performance for the first two-thirds of the match.
