Semaglutide 5mg

Semaglutide is a peptide and synthetic version of the human “glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)” hormone, which plays an important role in the regulation of blood sugar and appetite. It was originally developed as a medication for type 2 diabetes, but it has also been found to be effective for weight loss. This makes it a popular choice for both diabetes management and obesity treatment.

Mechanism of action of Semaglutide:

Semaglutide binds to GLP-1 receptors in the body and simulates the effect of natural GLP-1, resulting in:

+Increased Insulin Production: It stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin in response to food intake, which helps to lower blood sugar levels.

+Reduced Glucagon Production: Glucagon normally increases blood sugar levels; by inhibiting its release, semaglutide helps to better control glucose levels.

Slower Stomach Emptying: This provides longer-lasting satiety and may reduce appetite, which is beneficial for weight loss.
