Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone that is released in the gastrointestinal tract in response to eating. One role of GLP-1 is to prompt the body to produce more insulin, which reduces blood glucose (sugar). FDA
Semaglutide injection is in a class of medications called incretin mimetics. It works by helping the pancreas to release the right amount of insulin when blood sugar levels are high. Insulin helps move sugar from the blood into other body tissues where it is used for energy MedlinePlus
However, semaglutide is approved for weight loss under the name Wegovy. Ozempic has a smaller dose of semaglutide than Wegovy. It's important to note that if you start taking either of these drugs for weight loss, your body may get used to it, establishing a new normal. UC Davis
It's correct that Wegovy and Ozempic are two names for the same drug: semaglutide. Ozempic is the name of the drug as prescribed for people with diabetes. UC Health
Although semaglutide replaces the natureal GLP1 hormone in your body, long term effects of synthetic (man-made) semagltidare are not know. One of the potential risks of Semaglutide is that it can cause nausea and vomiting, particularly in the early stages of treatment.
Semaglutide injections can significantly decrease many patients' overall body weight and abdominal fat. A recent study showed that semaglutide weight loss is effective in many areas, especially the stomach, and can help patients lose belly fat. Seattle Plastic Surgery
