How it works
Semaglutide works by mimicking a natural hormone involved in appetite regulation. It can help you feel fuller for longer, reduce hunger, and support weight loss when combined with lifestyle changes.
Who it may be suitable for
- Adults living with obesity, or overweight with weight related health risks, where a prescriber decides it is clinically appropriate
- People who want a tablet option and can follow specific dosing instructions
What to expect
- Most people start with a low dose and increase gradually to reduce side effects
- Gastrointestinal side effects are common early on and often improve with time
- Best results come from combining treatment with nutrition, movement, sleep, and behaviour change support
Important
This medicine is not a quick fix and is not intended for short term cosmetic weight loss. You should only use GLP 1 medicines under medical supervision.
