Answered by Dr. Emily Carter, Endocrinologist

Ozempic (semaglutide) is a medication used to manage type 2 diabetes, but it is not a cure. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Purpose: Ozempic helps lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin secretion and reducing glucose production in the liver.
  • Effectiveness: It can improve blood sugar control and may lead to weight loss, which can help manage diabetes symptoms.
  • Reversal: While Ozempic can significantly improve blood sugar levels and reduce complications, it does not reverse diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition that requires ongoing management.

Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and treatment options.
