Also known as
Semaglutide slows down food leaving your stomach, reduces the amount of sugar released by your liver, and increases the amount of insulin released by your pancreas in response to high blood sugar levels. Together, these actions can
result in a healthier and more regulated blood sugar level for those living with diabetes and weight reduction.
Combined with healthy lifestyle changes,
promote weight loss by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas of the brain that
regulate appetite and food intake.
