Is Ozempic the miracle drug to win your weight loss battle?

Published

Ozempic has become a popular drug among the Hollywood elite to lose weight, and has become popular in South Africa.

Ozempic is an injectable drug prescribed once every week to help adults with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar.

Ozempic is administered as weekly shots to stimulate the production of insulin. Insulin slows digestion, reduces blood sugar, and helps individuals feel full.

Despite Ozempic not being classified as a weight loss medication, research shows that those who use it may experience weight loss.

Semaglutide, the active component in Ozempic is used for treating people with obesity and other weight-related health issues.

Ozempic is generally safe. The most common gastrointestinal side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation.

Plus, you should see your doctor before you use Ozempic as some illnesses are incompatible with it.

It works by reducing hunger, appetite, and cravings by influencing the brain’s hunger centres, specifically the hypothalamus.

Semaglutide may help you lose weight while you’re taking it, but most people will gain back a significant amount of weight if they stop taking it.

Plus, there is the issue of the availability of Ozempic for those with type 2 diabetes —those who need it most – because now everyone is buying it for weight loss.
