Ozempic (Semaglutide)

Ozempic® (Semaglutide) is a once-weekly injectable medicine used to help manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes, alongside diet and exercise. It is also prescribed, where clinically appropriate, as part of a weight management programme for eligible patients.
