Ozempic (semaglutide) is a prescription injectable medication used to help improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes and may also help reduce the risk of certain heart and kidney complications. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar, slows digestion, and helps you feel fuller for longer. Ozempic is typically used alongside diet and exercise to support long-term glucose management. If you are using Ozempic, it is important to know that it helps manage blood sugar but does not cure diabetes and should be used under medical supervision.
