A pre-filled solution injection pen that is used to treat type 2 diabetes in adults by regulating blood sugar levels and promoting weight loss. Ozempic 1mg is an injectable medication taken subcutaneously and used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults. The active ingredient in Ozempic is semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Semaglutide works by stimulating insulin production, suppressing glucagon secretion, and slowing down gastric emptying. This results in a reduction of blood sugar levels and food staying in the stomach longer, promoting feelings of fullness and reducing appetite to promote weight loss. Ozempic is usually administered once a week and can be taken with or without food. ● Ozempic 1mg Benefits: • Regulates blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. • Promotes weight loss. • Reduces appetite and increases the feeling of being full. • Improves blood sugar control. • Can be taken even if you haven't had any food. ● More Information: • Keep out of the reach and sight of children. • Read the leaflet inside the package before use. • Do not freeze it. • Keep inside a refrigerator. ● Precautions: • Before using semaglutide, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies.
