| Description: | Ozempic (Semaglutide) is used with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Semaglutide is also used in people with type 2 diabetes and heart disease to lower the risk of death from a heart attack or stroke. Semaglutide is similar to a natural hormone in your body (incretin). It works by causing insulin release in response to high blood sugar (such as after a meal) and decreasing the amount of sugar your liver makes. Ozempic (also known as semaglutide) is an injectable non-insulin medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is recommended that Ozempic is used as an adjunct to proper diet and exercise for improving blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes. Although Ozempic is not a weight-loss medication, many people take it. |
