At the same time, it is also known as the best hypoglycemic drug in history. GLP-1, also known as glucagon like peptide-1, is a brain gut peptide secreted by endocrine cells in the ileum.

Q1:How much weight can I lose on semaglutide injections?
A1:Weight loss on semaglutide (like Wegovy or Ozempic) varies, but clinical trials show impressive results. On average:
- Wegovy (2.4 mg semaglutide):
Patients lost 10-15% of their body weight over 68 weeks (around 16 months). Some lost over 20%.
- Ozempic (1 mg or 2 mg):
Patients lost 5-10% of their body weight in a similar timeframe.
Factors influencing results:
- Dosage: Higher doses lead to more weight loss.
- Lifestyle Changes: Combining semaglutide with diet and exercise boosts results.
- Starting Weight: Heavier individuals may see greater absolute weight loss.
- In real-world use, people often lose 1-2 pounds per week consistently. Some lose up to 50 pounds or more after a year.
Q2:Where do you inject semaglutide?
A2:Semaglutide is injected subcutaneously (under the skin). Common injection sites include:
- Abdomen – At least 2 inches away from the belly button.
- Thighs – Front or outer part of the thigh.
- Upper Arm – In the fatty tissue (less common if self-injecting).
- Rotate sites each week to avoid irritation.
- Avoid injecting into bruised, tender, or scarred areas.
- Clean the site with alcohol and let it dry before injecting.
Q3:What happens if you accidentally inject semaglutide into muscle?
A3:If semaglutide is accidentally injected into muscle instead of under the skin (subcutaneous), a few things could happen:
1. Faster Absorption:- Injecting into muscle may cause the medication to absorb faster than intended.
- This could increase the risk of side effects like nausea, dizziness, or low blood sugar (if combined with other diabetes meds).
- Semaglutide is designed for slow, steady absorption from fat tissue. Muscle injections might reduce its long-term effectiveness.
- Muscle injections can cause pain, bruising, or swelling.
- Don't panic. A single muscle injection is unlikely to cause serious harm.
- Monitor for side effects (like nausea or dizziness).
- Return to subcutaneous injections for the next dose.
- If symptoms worsen, contact your healthcare provider.
