Riize Semaglutide - Injectable Prescribed Online (Compounded)

Semaglutide belongs to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 receptor agonists). These drugs work by mimicking the action of a hormone called GLP-1, which helps regulate blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin secretion, reducing glucagon secretion (which increases blood sugar), and slowing down gastric emptying.

Semaglutide, when used for weight loss, functions similarly to how it works in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the class of drugs known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 receptor agonists). Here’s how Semaglutide helps with weight loss:Appetite Suppression: Semaglutide works on receptors in the brain that regulate appetite and satiety. By activating these receptors, semaglutide helps to reduce feelings of hunger and increase feelings of fullness. This can lead to a decrease in food intake, ultimately contributing to weight loss. Slowed Gastric Emptying: Like in diabetes treatment, Semaglutide slows down the emptying of the stomach. This delays the passage of food from the stomach to the small intestine, which can prolong feelings of fullness after eating and reduce the desire to eat more food. Increased Energy Expenditure: There’s evidence to suggest that GLP-1 receptor agonists like Semaglutide may also increase energy expenditure. This means that the body may burn more calories, even at rest, which can contribute to weight loss over time. Reduced Fat Accumulation: Semaglutide may also have effects on fat metabolism and storage, potentially leading to a decrease in fat accumulation in the body.

Once Semaglutide is in your system, you may start feeling the effects of being less hungry, or feeling like your food is staying in your stomach for longer. However, these effects may take a little longer for some people to feel. If you are using Semaglutide for weight loss, be patient, since even if the medication is helping you consume fewer calories, it may take many weeks or months to physically see changes.

While you are taking Semaglutide, you may want to avoid other medications in the same class of drugs (GLP-1 agonists). Your doctor may also ask about other medications that you are using that can decrease your blood glucose levels, like diabetes medications. You may want to avoid high-fat foods, foods with lots of added sugar, trans and saturated fats, processed carbohydrates, and foods with high sodium. Not only may these foods hinder your weight loss and health goals, but they may bring more digestive discomfort while you are using Semaglutide.

The most common side effects of Semaglutide involve your digestion and gastrointestinal tract. Burping, bloating, gas, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea, or symptoms that feel like a stomach flu may occur. Other common side effects may include headache, dizziness, tiredness, and low blood sugar levels in people who have diabetes.
