Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist used for managing type 2 diabetes and obesity. It is available in both subcutaneous and oral formulations and has benefits in weight loss and blood sugar control. Synthetic GLP-1 receptor agonists work in a similar way to the natural GLP-1 hormone. They attach to GLP-1 receptors in the body and help lower blood sugar by triggering the pancreas to release insulin. This makes them effective for managing glucose levels without causing dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). They also lead to an overall reduction in food intake, which is why GLP-1 receptor agonists are increasingly used for weight management. Show more
