Description

Ozempic 1mg

Ozempic (semaglutide) is an injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist that is primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes and, more recently, weight loss (marketed under the trade name Wegovy). The 1mg dose is a stronger formulation for people who require more glycemic control.

How It Works:
Ozempic mimics the GLP-1 hormone.

Increases insulin release (lowers blood sugar).

Slows stomach emptying .

Reduces glucagon secretion (stops the liver from producing extra glucose).

Medical uses include managing type 2 diabetes.

Helps reduce HbA1c (long-term blood sugar levels).

Reduces the risk of diabetes complications (such as heart disease and kidney damage).

Weight Loss (Off Label Use):

Promotes satiety, which leads to lower calorie consumption.

Frequently recommended in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Dosage and Administration
Starting dose: 0.25mg once weekly (for four weeks to reduce negative effects).

Maintenance Dose: Increased to 0.5mg, then 1mg weekly as needed.

Subcutaneous injection sites include the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms.

Storage: Refrigerate before first use; can be kept at room temperature for 56 days.

Important notes:

Take on the same day every week (or by ±2 days if necessary).

Avoid sharing pens (risk of infection or inappropriate dose).

Common side effects include minor and transient symptoms.

Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

Constipation and stomach ache.

Mild headache and weariness.

Serious (get medical help):

Pancreatitis causes significant abdominal pain.

Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar, particularly when paired with insulin).

Kidney issues (can impair kidney function).

Thyroid C-cell tumors (found in animal research; avoid if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer).
