Overview
Semaglutide tablets are a prescription medication that were initially developed as a treatment for type 2 diabetes but were then recognized for their effectiveness in promoting weight loss and treating obesity.
This drug is classified as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it works by imitating a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that our bodies produce naturally in response to us consuming food. It is manufactured in the intestines after meals and triggers the release of insulin to manage our blood sugar levels and helps with other digestive processes.
When you take semaglutide pills, they work with your metabolism to trigger the production of insulin that will keep your blood sugar levels properly balanced after you consume food. It also causes your digestion process to slow down and your stomach takes longer to empty, which makes you feel like you have just eaten and you do not get hungry as fast.
The semaglutide pills help promote weight loss because the medication works in tandem with your natural metabolism and makes it more efficient, so it stores less fat, helps to curb your appetite, and you consume fewer calories.
- The medication helps keep you from overeating by suppressing your appetite and helping you to feel full while eating smaller meals.
- They slow down how fast the food you eat travels through your digestive system, keeping food in your stomach for several hours longer than normal, which helps keep you feeling full and not hungry for an extended time.
- The medication supplements your natural supply of GLP-1 hormone and helps to improve insulin levels, so your body burns fat more efficiently.
- The tablets are a great alternative to those who don’t like needles and do not wish to administer injections.
- Semaglutide tablets can be stored at room temperature and do not require refrigeration.
- Studies have shown that semaglutide tablets resulted in comparable weight loss as the injectable form of the medication.
The amount of weight you may lose while taking semaglutide tablets can vary depending on your starting weight, metabolic rate, adherence to healthy habits that support weight loss, and the specific dose you are taking.
Studies have shown that semaglutide tablets resulted in an average weight loss of about 15% of the participants starting weight. The potential weight loss becomes more significant when the medication is used along with a healthy diet, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments that promote weight loss. Losing excess weight can help eliminate or cause remission of chronic illnesses like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.

Compounded Semaglutide Tablets FAQs
Compounded semaglutide tablets are administered through special 1 mg tablets that dissolve in your mouth, which causes them to be absorbed faster and used more efficiently by your body. Patients normally start treatment with compounded semaglutide tablets, taking a 1 mg tablet each day for the first two months, and then their dose increases to two 1 mg tablets a day from then on. Your doctor will monitor and adjust your dose depending on your rate of weight loss and any side effects you may be experiencing.
When taking semaglutide tablets, you begin by consuming one pill each day on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other medications to ensure they are adequately absorbed by your body.
As with most medications, some people using semaglutide tablets may experience side effects. The most frequently reported ones include stomach upset, bloating, diarrhea, darker urine, constipation, nausea, vomiting, headaches, tiredness, and occasional dizziness, etc. Most side effects are mild and diminish gradually as your body gets used to the medication; however, in rare cases, some patients have more intense reactions that require immediate medical attention, so it is important to speak with your doctor to learn more and decide if semaglutide tablets are right for you.
