What is Ozempic?
Ozempic (semaglutide) is an injectable medication used to improve blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists and works by mimicking the effects of the hormone GLP-1, which helps regulate blood sugar levels. Ozempic slows digestion and decreases appetite, leading to improved glycemic control and potential weight loss benefits.
What is the Ozempic controversy?
The injectable diabetes medication Ozempic (semaglutide) has recently seen its FDA-approved label updated to warn of potential serious intestinal side effects like obstruction or blockage. The newly added FDA warning highlights that Ozempic may cause severe gastrointestinal issues like intestinal obstruction, intense abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal swelling.
Treatment: A method of treating type 2 diabetes comprising administering semaglutide once weekly in a amount of 1.0 mg to a subject in need thereof
