Ozempic is an injectable medication that helps promote weight loss by suppressing appetite and boosting metabolism. Ozempic is a GLP-1 analogue, which means it works by mimicking the effects of the hormone GLP-1. GLP-1 is responsible for regulating appetite and metabolism, and when levels of GLP-1 are increased, people tend to eat less and lose weight.
