Frequently Asked Questions About Semaglutide
What is Semaglutide?
Sold under the brand names Wegovy and Ozempic among others, it is an injectable medication used to manage long-term weight loss.
The medication operates as a glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist (GLP-1), GLP-1 is a hormone that plays a role in appetite and digestion, namely in the production of insulin.
It was originally approved under the brand name Ozempic in the USA to assist with managing blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes, but has recently become recognized for its use in aiding with long-term weight loss.
How Does Semaglutide Work For Weight Loss?
The medication works through a number of processes that can help you lose weight.
Firstly, it can help you to feel fuller by actually slowing down the speed at which digested food leaves your stomach. This mechanism reduces the patient’s appetite and hunger levels, meaning that calorie restriction is easier, leading to increased weight loss.
Secondly, the medication increases the natural production of insulin in the body.
When food is consumed, your pancreas creates insulin to help move sugar from your blood into your cells. In individuals who suffer from insulin resistance or a lack of insulin production, this transfer of sugar from the blood to the cells becomes reduced, leading to higher blood sugar levels.
Higher blood sugar levels are linked to increased hunger, making simple calorie restriction difficult and even dangerous. By increasing your body’s ability to produce insulin, blood sugar levels are reduced, leading to lower levels of hunger.
Because of this, Semaglutide was initially introduced to treat Type 2 diabetes, as a lack of insulin production is the main cause of Type 2 diabetes.
However, it is not only those with Type 2 diabetes who can benefit from Semaglutide. Recent studies have shown that Semaglutide is effective at managing weight loss in individuals with and without Type 2 diabetes.
How Much Weight Can You Lose With Semaglutide?
Common Side Effects of Semaglutide
The most common side-effects are nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. Another potential interaction is with oral medications.
Because the drug slows the release of digested food from your stomach, it may affect how certain oral medications are absorbed by your body when they’re taken together, including other blood sugar-lowering medications.
However these side effects are manageable, if they occur, and normally disappear during the course of treatment.
