Semaglutide

Uses and Benefits

Semaglutide works by mimicking the effects of GLP-1, a hormone produced in the intestines in response to food intake. GLP-1 helps regulate blood sugar levels by:

• Stimulating insulin secretion

• Reducing glucagon secretion (a hormone that increases blood sugar)

• Slowing down gastric emptying

Semaglutide has been shown to be more effective than other GLP-1 receptor agonists in reducing HbA1c levels (a measure of long-term blood sugar control) and aiding weight loss.

Key Benefits

• Weight loss
  Semaglutide has been found to be effective in aiding weight loss.

• Improved blood sugar control
  Helps lower blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin secretion, reducing glucagon secretion, and slowing gastric emptying.

• Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease
  Shown to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, such as heart attack and stroke, in people with type 2 diabetes.

• Improved quality of life
  Found to improve quality of life measures, such as treatment satisfaction and physical function, in people with type 2 diabetes.
