What is the medication?

Semaglutide (brand name Wegovy or Ozempic) is a non-stimulant injectable medication that can help reduce bodyweight by working on the appetite control centers in the brain. Semaglutide works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone that decreases ghrelin hormones and increasing leptin hormones making you feel fuller and resulting in decreased caloric intake which can lead to weight loss.
