WHAT IS SEMAGLUTIDE?

Semaglutide is a medication classified as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), commonly used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by regulating blood glucose levels.

BENEFITS: 

• Blood Sugar Regulation: Semaglutide mimics the action of GLP-1, which helps control blood sugar by stimulating insulin release when blood sugar levels are high and reducing glucagon production to prevent unnecessary sugar increases.
• Weight Management: It aids in weight reduction by promoting feelings of fullness, thereby reducing food intake and supporting weight loss efforts.
• Cardiovascular Health: Some studies indicate that Semaglutide may lower the risk of heart-related complications for individuals with type 2 diabetes.

DOSAGE:

Semaglutide is administered via subcutaneous injection. Dosage varies based on the treatment goals:

• For Type 2 Diabetes: Start with 0.25 mg once weekly. Depending on your body’s response and tolerance, the dose may be increased to 0.5 mg or 1 mg once weekly.
• For Obesity Treatment: The recommended maximum dose is 2 mg once weekly. To reach this dosage, a gradual escalation over at least 16 weeks is necessary. Administer on the same day each week, at a consistent time.

Always follow your healthcare provider’s specific dosage instructions, which are customized for your condition and response to the medication.

POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS:

While not everyone experiences side effects, some may include:

Gastrointestinal Issues: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain are common when starting treatment but may diminish over time.

Hypoglycemia: There is a lower risk of low blood sugar compared to other diabetes medications, but it can still occur, especially if used with other glucose-lowering drugs.

Injection Site Reactions: Some individuals may notice redness, itching, or discomfort at the injection site.

Pancreatitis: Although rare, inflammation of the pancreas has been reported.

Kidney Function: Monitoring may be required as Semaglutide can affect kidney function.

Discuss any potential side effects and concerns with your healthcare provider before starting Semaglutide treatment.

PHARMACOKINETICS:
