Is Ozempic a insulin?

Ozempic (semaglutide) is an injectable Type 2 diabetes medication, but it's not insulin or a substitute for insulin. It works in several different ways to lower blood glucose (sugar) levels. These include telling your pancreas to release insulin after you eat, reducing glucose production in the liver, and slowing the movement of food out of the stomach. Ozempic's effects can work synergistically with insulin, so you may be prescribed both of them together. View original source
