Ozempic

Ozempic (semaglutide) is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps improve glycemic control and can also promote weight loss in adults. Ozempic mimics the action of the GLP-1 hormone, which stimulates insulin secretion and reduces glucagon release, leading to lower blood sugar levels after meals.

  • Promotes satiety, which can help with weight loss.


Common Dosages

Typical Dosing

  • Adults: The recommended starting dose is 0.25 mg once weekly for 4 weeks. After that, the dose may be increased to 0.5 mg once weekly. Based on individual glycemic control, the dose can be further increased to 1 mg once weekly.
