Semaglutide (Oral)
Overview
Compounded oral semaglutide is a daily, needle-free tablet containing semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It is prescribed only when a licensed U.S. provider determines it is clinically appropriate for you, and it is prepared individually by a state-licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy in response to a patient-specific prescription.
How it works
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It acts on receptors involved in appetite regulation and slows gastric emptying, which may reduce hunger and increase the feeling of fullness after eating. Your provider will discuss what to expect in your individual situation.
Who compounds this medication
MedicLab is a telehealth platform. MedicLab does not manufacture, compound, or dispense any medication.
