FAQS
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide, a subcutaneous injection, is a long-acting analog of a naturally occurring hormone in the body Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) GLP-1 is a peptide hormone produced in the small intestine that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion, which slows gastric emptying, and helps control appetite – all of which aid in healthy and effective weight loss. Semaglutide was FDA-approved in 2021 for the treatment of obesity and well as readily prescribed for the treatment of diabetes since 2017.
How does the medication work?
Semaglutide helps to stabilize your blood sugar. It targets multiple receptors throughout the body related to appetite and hunger. While using Semaglutide, patients also lose weight because GLP-1, the key hormone involved, slows the rate at which your stomach empties food. Semaglutide also blocks the hormone glucagon that causes your liver to release sugar. The combination of these mechanisms supports appetite control, making you feel less hungry, and therefore eat less food and lose weight.
