Ozempic and weight loss: why its indication matters

Semaglutide has changed care for some people. To understand a proposed treatment, however, distinguish the active substance, brand, indication and results of the trial being cited.

Ozempic or Wegovy: understanding the difference

The same active substance does not mean the same authorisation. A serious comparison starts with the medical reason for prescribing.

STEP 1, 2021: 1,961 adults without diabetes, 68 weeks. Mean weight change: −14.9% with semaglutide 2.4 mg, −2.4% with placebo. Both groups received lifestyle support. An average does not predict an individual result.

Semaglutide: reading the STEP 1 results
