GLIPIQ 4mg Injection may be prescribed for:

• Long-term weight management: Semaglutide may be used in adults with obesity.

• Overweight with weight-related health problems: It may be prescribed for adults who are overweight and have a weight-related health condition.

GLIPIQ should be used along with a suitable diet and regular physical activity. The dose is selected and adjusted by the doctor based on the individual's response and treatment plan. Do not change the dose without medical advice.

Semaglutide works in a similar way to the natural hormone GLP-1. It acts on areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation, helping increase feelings of fullness and reduce food intake.

It also slows stomach emptying, which may help you feel full for longer after eating. These effects can support weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you are taking before starting GLIPIQ 4mg Injection.

• Insulin and sulfonylureas: Using Semaglutide with insulin or medicines such as sulfonylureas can increase the risk of low blood sugar. Your doctor may adjust the dose of these medicines.

• Medicines taken by mouth: Semaglutide can slow stomach emptying and may affect the absorption of some oral medicines.

• Other weight-management medicines: Do not combine GLIPIQ with another Semaglutide-containing medicine, GLP-1 receptor agonist, or other weight-management injection unless advised by your doctor.

• Other diabetes medicines: Tell your doctor if you use medicines to control blood glucose so that your treatment can be monitored safely.
