As with all medications, not everyone should be taking Semaglutide injections even if they could be considered eligible if they are likely to experience adverse side effects or allergic reactions. When used for weight loss, Semaglutide should only be taken by those who are participating in a medical weight loss program that includes a balanced, calorie deficient diet and an exercise regimen that is recommended by a specialist. This medication should only be used by patients who understand all potential risks and side effects associated with Semaglutide. It is not recommended for use on patients who have a history of pancreatitis, medullary thyroid cancer, gallbladder disease, or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. Semaglutide may also interact with other medications, so it is very important that patients mention any other medications or treatment plans that they are currently on before starting injections of Semaglutide.
