Semaglutide Weight Loss
Semaglutide is a prescription medication that has been FDA-approved for weight loss since 2021. It is designed for individuals who are overweight or obese and need assistance in losing weight. Semaglutide is known for its ability to mimic a hormone called GLP-1, which regulates appetite and food intake. This helps reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness, making it easier to follow a low-calorie diet. Brand names for semaglutide include Wegovy and Ozempic. Typical dosages are administered as a weekly injection, with doses gradually increased over time [13][14].
