🩺 Description
Semagrix contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. In some countries and formulations, semaglutide is also prescribed for chronic weight management in people with obesity or overweight who meet specific medical criteria. It is given as a once-weekly subcutaneous (under-the-skin) injection.
