Semaglutide shots
Semaglutide shots are a medication primarily used for type 2 diabetes management and weight reduction. As a GLP-1 receptor agonist, semaglutide mimics incretin hormones, enhancing insulin secretion, reducing glucagon levels, and slowing gastric emptying to regulate blood sugar. Administered via subcutaneous injection, it has shown efficacy in weight loss, particularly when combined with lifestyle changes. Studies also indicate potential benefits in reducing cardiovascular risks. However, careful supervision is crucial due to possible side effects such as gastrointestinal issues and rare thyroid tumors.
