1. What is Semaglutide (ozempic) ?
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication which was initially developed for management of type-2 diabetes in 2017.

🔼 In June 2021, The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Semaglutide for treating weight loss.

🔼 The drug was developed by Novo Nordisk, one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies.

2. How does Semaglutide Work?
Semaglutide is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) that is produced by our body.

🔼 When Semaglutide is injected , the body reacts to it as if the body naturally produced the GLP-1.

🔼 If you are struggling to loose weight due to lack of motivation, have difficulty adhering to diet and exercise plan, or just don’t have enough time to focus on your health. If so, schedule a free 15 minute consultation with our Nurse Practitioner to get started with our Semaglutide Medical Weight Loss Program today!
