Drug Interactions:
Semaglutide can potentially interact with various other medications, encompassing both prescribed and non-prescribed drugs, as well as vitamins and herbal supplements. It is crucial to inform your medical practitioner regarding the full spectrum of medicines and supplements you are currently taking.
Particularly, it is essential to apprise your doctor of all your medications, with a specific focus on insulin or alternative diabetes treatments. This includes medications like dulaglutide, exenatide, liraglutide, Byetta, Trulicity, Victoza, and any others you might be using.
How Ozempic - Semaglutide Works:
Ozempic falls within the category of pharmaceuticals known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, also referred to as incretin mimetics.
Ozempic operates by attaching itself to GLP-1 receptors, thereby triggering the secretion of insulin from the pancreas when the body requires it. Additionally, it contributes to the moderation of sugar release from the liver and retards the pace at which food exits the stomach. This synergistic interplay of actions results in the reduction of both A1C and blood sugar levels, and potentially aids in curbing appetite as well.
