How Does Semaglutide Work for Weight Loss?

Semaglutide has recently gained attention for its potential use in weight loss. While originally developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, it has been found to promote weight loss in people with and without diabetes. It works by mimicking the actions of the GLP-1 hormone, which regulates appetite and food intake. It stimulates insulin secretion and reduces glucagon secretion, which helps to lower blood sugar levels and reduce hunger.

Clinical studies have shown that Semaglutide can lead to significant weight loss in people with obesity. In a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (Feb. 2021), participants who received Semaglutide lost an average of 15% of their body weight over a 68-week period, compared to 2.4% for those receiving a placebo. Semaglutide is administered as a subcutaneous injection once a week. Like all medications, it can cause side effects and the dose is titrated up monthly to help avoid this. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, constipation and diarrhea.
