In general, Semaglutide injections are most appropriate for adults (18+) who have a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or higher and struggle with excess weight due to obesity-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or sleep apnea. You’ll require a prescription to get Semaglutide, so you’ll need to discuss with your healthcare provider whether this medication is the right option for you and your unique health goals. However, it's important to note that not everyone who meets these criteria will be a good candidate for Semaglutide. For example, people with a history of pancreatitis or certain types of thyroid cancer may need to avoid this medication, as taking Semaglutide can irritate and/or worsen symptoms/conditions.
