Description
What Is Ozempic?
Ozempic is a GLP-1 receptor agonist originally approved to treat type 2 diabetes.
Weight loss is a common side effect, which is why many people now use it for that purpose (often off-label).
The FDA-approved version specifically for weight loss is called Wegovy (same drug, different dosage).
