Wegovy Flextouch works by targeting GLP-1 receptors in your body that control your appetite and boost the secretion of insulin. It has Semaglutide, which is prescribed to patients suffering from type 2 diabetes, helping them to manage body weight, blood sugar levels, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Using this pre-filled pen should be combined with a healthy routine of nutritious meals and exercise; you cannot rely on the medication solely. The active ingredient Semaglutide binds GLP-1 receptors and reduces appetite by slowing down the movement of food in the body, giving you a feeling of a fuller stomach. It also increases the secretion of insulin from the pancreas and limits the production of glucose when your body detects high levels of sugar.
