Frequently Asked Questions About Semaglutide
What is Semaglutide?
This medication functions as a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist, a hormone that influences appetite and digestion by stimulating insulin production.
Initially approved in the USA as Ozempic for managing blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes, it has recently gained recognition for its effectiveness in promoting long-term weight loss.
How Does Semaglutide Work for Weight Loss?
Semaglutide aids weight loss through several mechanisms:
Slowing Gastric Emptying: It helps you feel fuller by slowing down the rate at which food leaves your stomach. This reduces appetite and hunger levels, making calorie restriction easier and promoting weight loss.
Increasing Insulin Production: When you eat, your pancreas produces insulin to move sugar from your blood into your cells. In those with insulin resistance or low insulin production, this sugar transfer is inefficient, leading to higher blood sugar levels, which are linked to increased hunger. By enhancing insulin production, Semaglutide lowers blood sugar levels and reduces hunger.
Semaglutide was initially introduced as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes, where insulin production is impaired. However, recent studies have shown its effectiveness in managing weight loss in both diabetic and non-diabetic individuals.
How Much Weight Can You Lose With Semaglutide?
The weight loss achievable with Semaglutide depends on factors such as age, gender, diet, and exercise regimen. Clinical studies indicate that individuals using once-weekly Semaglutide injections of 2.4 mg can lose, on average, 6% of their weight by week 12 and 12% by week 28.
A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that after 68 weeks of treatment, individuals lost 15% of their body weight compared to 2.4% in the placebo group. The results highlight the treatment’s effectiveness in aiding weight loss.
Common Side Effects of Semaglutide
The most common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. Semaglutide may also interact with oral medications due to its effect on slowing gastric emptying, potentially affecting the absorption of other drugs, including those that lower blood sugar.
These side effects are typically manageable and usually subside during the course of treatment.
