Losing weight is difficult.

Semaglutide can help.

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved treatment for weight loss.

It is an injectable once-weekly medication that works by suppressing appetite.

It is a GLP-1 agonist (glucagon-like peptide)--a hormone released in response to food intake–to create feelings of fullness and satiety by slowing digestion. Therefore, you feel fuller longer and have less desire to eat.

In addition,semaglutide increases insulin secretion which helps cells absorb excess glucose in the bloodstream. It also decreases glucagon secretion in the body, which minimizes unnecessary glucose production when not needed.

Semaglutide is sold commercially as Ozempic, Wegovy and Rybelsus but the generic brand is more affordable and provides the same results.
