About Ozempic

Ozempic, a GLP-1 agonist, works by increasing insulin release, delaying gastric emptying, and reducing appetite. Ozempic is used to treat type 2 diabetes, but can result in weight loss. It can lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes. Ozempic is available only by prescription. It is available in a generic formulation as well as under different brand names, including semaglutide.

Ozempic may be prescribed as an injection. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage prescribed.

If you're prescribed Ozempic, be sure to complete the full course of the GLP-1 agonist unless your doctor specifically tells you to stop. If you don’t complete your prescription, Ozempic may not fully treat your type 2 diabetes or weight-related medical problems.

  • Ozempic uses

    There are several FDA-approved uses for Ozempic, but your healthcare provider may also prescribe it off-label to treat other medical conditions.

    Your PlushCare doctor may prescribe Ozempic for any of the following reasons, or other reasons not listed here. If you have questions about why a medication is prescribed, ask your online doctor or pharmacist.

  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus

    Ozempic is FDA-approved as an adjunctive therapy with diet and exercise to control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Ozempic can also help reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and stroke, in adults with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

    Ozempic is not recommended for adults with type 1 diabetes.

  • Weight loss

    Although technically not approved for weight loss, Ozempic may sometimes be prescribed as an “off label” prescription for weight management for certain patients. This may include patients with abnormal blood glucose, patients with prediabetes or metabolic syndrome, or in overweight patients (BMI > 27) with at least one-weight related condition, such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure, as well as obese patients (BMI > 30).
