Description and Usage:

Ozempic (semaglutide) is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. Semaglutide helps lower blood sugar levels by increasing the release of insulin and reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver. It also slows down the rate at which food is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.

Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic, mimics the effects of a natural hormone called GLP-1. It stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, reduces glucagon secretion, and slows down gastric emptying, which collectively helps control blood sugar levels.
