Answers

Ozempic is FDA approved for adults to treat diabetes type 2.

"Ozempic contains the active ingredient semaglutide, which is FDA approved for weight loss under the brand name Wegovy, but the Ozempic brand of semaglutide is not FDA approved for weight loss.

Ozempic contains the same active ingredient (semaglutide) as:

Wegovy injections which are used weekly for weight loss in adults who have obesity, or are overweight (excess weight) and also have weight-related medical problems.
Rybelsus tablets which are taken daily to lower blood sugar levels for type 2 diabetic patients along with diet and exercise."
