What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide regulates your body's appetite by mimicking a natural hormone called GLP-1. When activated, GLP-1 receptors slow gastric emptying and signal fullness to the brain. Used alongside a healthy diet and physical activity, semaglutide has been shown to help patients achieve substantial weight loss in clinical trials.
How effective is Semaglutide?
In a clinical trial that studied the effectiveness of semaglutide, patients lost an average of 15% of their body weight over the span of 68 weeks. Participants using GLP-1 medication lost five times more weight than with diet and exercise alone.
Is Semaglutide safe?
Yes — when prescribed and monitored appropriately. Semaglutide is safe for patients who meet the clinical criteria and have no contraindicating conditions. The SELECT trial showed no new safety concerns over four years of follow-up. Your appointed clinician will determine whether Semaglutide is appropriate for you.
How do I store Semaglutide?
Store your medication in the refrigerator between 36°F and 46°F. If your Semaglutide appears discolored, do not use it.

- In the SURMOUNT-1 clinical trial, patients lost 15.7% of their body weight (on 15mg)
- In another study, patients on a higher dose (15mg) lost 21 lbs; patients on a lower dose (5mg) lost 11.6 lbs
