Semaglutide Weight Loss
Semaglutide injection (Subcutaneous Route)
Semaglutide, a GLP-1 analog, was approved in 2020 as a therapy for improving glycemic control in Type 2 diabetes patients. Semaglutide is a promising treatment for those struggling to lose weight.
Semaglutide has been shown to lower appetite, control eating, and minimize food cravings, while also improving glycemic control. Semaglutide is most effective for weight loss when combined with lifestyle modifications including a healthier diet and regular exercise.
Semaglutide: What is it?
