FAQs About Semaglutide
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist originally developed to help individuals with type 2 diabetes regulate blood sugar levels. Now, it’s also used for effective weight management, as it promotes a feeling of fullness, reduces hunger, and aids in long-term weight loss. Widely known under the brand name Ozempic, semaglutide injections have gained popularity for their remarkable results in aiding weight loss for people with a high body mass index (BMI) or those struggling to manage weight-related conditions such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
How Semaglutide Works
Semaglutide mimics a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in your body, which regulates appetite and blood sugar levels. When administered as a once-weekly injection, semaglutide helps you feel fuller for longer periods and reduces cravings, leading to consuming fewer calories.1 This process helps improve metabolic function, making losing weight and keeping it off easier. It’s particularly effective for those who may have struggled with other weight loss medications or programs in the past. By targeting metabolic processes, semaglutide can also help manage obesity and related conditions.
