Semaglutide is an injectable prescription medication used for chronic weight management. It is similar to a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food intake. Semaglutide works by slowing digestion and suppressing appetite, which allows you to feel fuller longer so you eat less food.
Semaglutide activates receptors in the part of the brain that controls hunger and fullness. This leads to reduced appetite and a feeling of fullness and satisfaction after eating smaller portions of food. Over time, consuming fewer calories results in weight loss.
