Ozempic, 0.5mg Solution for Injection in Pre-Filled Pen, Injectable medication for type 2 diabetes management

Ozempic is a 0.5mg solution for injection in a pre-filled pen designed for the management of type 2 diabetes. The key active ingredient in Ozempic is semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist that helps regulate blood sugar levels. By mimicking the effects of incretin hormones, semaglutide stimulates insulin release, inhibits glucagon secretion, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite. This comprehensive medication not only aids in controlling blood glucose but also supports weight management in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The pre-filled pen offers convenience and ease of use for self-administration, making it a valuable tool in diabetes management.
