What is Semaglutide?

First approved as a Type 2 diabetes treatment in 2017, Semaglutide is a highly effective stabilizer for one’s glycemic levels. This medication increases the patient’s insulin levels and reduces the secretion of the peptide hormone glucagon, leading to a stabilization of blood sugar levels. Semaglutide causes a major reduction in appetite and food cravings, bringing glycemic balance to the body. While this medication is incredibly effective on its own, patients see the biggest changes when combining it with a healthy diet and regular exercise.  

How does Semaglutide work?

Semaglutide is a peptidic GLP-1 receptor agonist. GLP-1 is a hormone in the body that is responsible for controlling hunger levels. Semaglutide interacts with this peptide hormone, resulting in the patient feeling satiated after eating a smaller amount of calories than they normally would. 

Semaglutide also induces insulin secretion from the pancreas in instances where blood sugar levels are too high. Beyond that, it slows down the digestive process by causing food to pass through the digestive tract more slowly. This is known as “gastric emptying,” and it causes a reduction in appetite as well as an increase in weight loss.

What are the benefits of Semaglutide?

Various clinical studies have shown that Semaglutide can achieve a higher level of weight loss when compared to other treatments. The medication can be taken either on its own or together with a customized diet treatment, allowing for improved appetite control and more noticeable weight loss. Semaglutide was original approved by the FDA in 2019 and has been successfully subscribed to thousands of patients. 

Other benefits of Semaglutide can include, but benefets are not limited to: 

  • A non-addictive treatment
  • Reduced risk of heart disease
  • Lower bloodpressure 
  • Improved mobility
  • Mental clarity
  • Better sleep

What does the treatment involve?

Semaglutide injections are typically administered every two weeks or once a month. If needed, the dosage will be increased over time for better results. The injections are found to be painless by most patients and are typically administered in the midsection, upper arm, or thighs.

Following the initial treatment, patients will perform self injections at home and come back to the office for follow-up visits every few weeks or once a month.

Potential side effects of Semaglutide

While most patients who undergo Semaglutide treatments have no issues, there are some potential side effects. Some of these include, but are not limited to: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, indigestion, and constipation. If patients experience any of these symptoms they can be rest assured that they usually dissipate after a few weeks. Patients will be given more information about these potential effects and how to handle them when they come in for their consultation.
