What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide (brand names: Wegovy, Ozempic) is a drug developed to lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack or stroke in type two diabetes patients. After seeing its positive effects in this population and its common assistance in weight loss, Semaglutide received official approval in 2021 to be used in patients who might be struggling to lose weight. This endorsement marks a pivotal advancement, encompassing every phase of the program, from qualification to maintenance, through to completion.

How does Semaglutide + B12 work?

GLP-1 is a hormone produced in the small intestine that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion, thereby lowering blood sugar. Semaglutide + B12 has demonstrated beneficial effects on glycemia, in addition to the following potential benefits:
  • Weight Loss
  • Neuroprotective
  • Improved Fertility
  • Treatment of PCOS
  • Smoking Cessation
  • Cardiovascular Benefits
