How does Semaglutide work?

Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food. Your body’s natural GLP-1 hormones and Semaglutide work to control insulin, lower blood sugar, and slow down stomach emptying. This can help you feel fuller faster, leading to reduced appetite, improved portion control, and fewer cravings.
What is the recommended frequency for receiving the Semaglutide or Tirzepatide or injections?

Semaglutide or Tirzepatide is administered once a week as an injection. The dose is increased gradually over 16 - 20 weeks to monitor and reduce potential side effects.
What are the most common side effects of Semaglutide?

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or Stomach (abdominal) pain
How do you administer the weight loss injections?

Your health care provider should show you how to use Semaglutide before you use it for the first time. Semaglutide is injected under the skin (subcutaneously) of your stomach (abdomen), thigh, or upper arm. Do not inject Semaglutide into a muscle (intramuscularly) or vein (intravenously)
