This remedy is now used by most people who want to lose weight.
The main active ingredient of ozempic is semaglutide, which was approved by Anvisa (National Health Surveillance Agency) in 2018 for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, many people use this drug to lose weight. In this way the endocrinologist dr. Thais Mussi explained what the effects of ozempic are.

Understand the effects of ozempic medicine
“Importantly, there are people who are allergic to semaglutide and other substances in ozempic. Therefore, like all medicines, caution is needed before pointing or ingesting it. Approximately one in ten people experience problems, such as diarrhea, vomiting, and nausea, but very short-lived,” Thais stressed.
Thus, it is worth avoiding or drinking alcohol in moderation because it is capable of causing hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia in patients with diabetes. Even in small quantities, it happens to significantly lower blood sugar and especially on an empty stomach or after exercise.
“If the use of drugs is for weight loss, since alcohol is very caloric, we must avoid its excessive consumption to achieve the desired result of using the drug, which is weight loss. Moderate alcohol consumption generally it does not affect blood glucose levels in patients with controlled diabetes,” the endocrinologist pointed out.
Does Ozempic interfere with the use of contraceptives?
No research mentions the interference of Ozempic in drugs such as contraceptives, but every time a woman loses weight, her fertility increases and with that also increases the possibility of becoming pregnant if she does not protect herself properly. “Regardless, talking to your doctor about the combination of medications is always key,” she advises.
What is the contraindication of ozempic?
Mussi admitted that Ozempic is not for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. He still refuses this drug for patients with a family history of cancer type CMT (medullary thyroid cancer) or MEN2 (multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2). “In these cases it is very important to understand with your doctor if you can use ozempic,” she concluded.
