Note: While Ozempic and Wegovy are FDA-approved for diabetes and weight loss respectively, many patients access the same active ingredient through compounded semaglutide prepared by FDA-registered, inspected compounding pharmacies
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which works by mimicking a natural hormone in the body that regulates appetite and blood sugar levels
Diabetes prescribing involves HbA1c monitoring and, importantly, review of your other glucose-lowering medicines
However, the manufacturer guidelines provide a specific window for flexibility
