At a glance

What is it—and why does it matter?

Semaglutide works as a GLP-1 receptor agonist and increases insulin release after eating. Semaglutide-associated hsCRP reductions correlated with weight loss magnitude, but the timing suggests hsCRP decreases can occur early (by 4 and 8 weeks) and are not entirely dependent on weight loss. Semaglutide (Ozempic) commonly causes gastrointestinal adverse effects (diarrhoea, vomiting, nausea) affecting more than 1 in 10 people, typically mild-to-moderate and short in duration.

Mechanism + clinical pharmacology

Target, response, and disposition.

Primary explanation

Activates GLP-1 receptors, increasing glucose-dependent insulin secretion, reducing glucagon, lowering energy intake through appetite pathways, and delaying early postprandial gastric emptying.

ParameterReference valueWhy it matters
Half-lifeApproximately 1 week [1]Regulatory labelWegovy prescribing informationCurrent DailyMed label for Wegovy; approved uses, dosing, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.Supports prolonged exposure; the current label states semaglutide may remain in circulation for roughly 5–7 weeks after the last dose at specified presentations.
Protein binding>99% albumin-bound [1]Regulatory labelWegovy prescribing informationCurrent DailyMed label for Wegovy; approved uses, dosing, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.Albumin binding decreases renal clearance and protects the molecule from degradation.
Subcutaneous bioavailability89% [1]Regulatory labelWegovy prescribing informationCurrent DailyMed label for Wegovy; approved uses, dosing, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.Maximum concentration is reached about 1–3 days after a subcutaneous dose in the current Wegovy label.
Oral bioavailabilityApproximately 1–2% [1]Regulatory labelWegovy prescribing informationCurrent DailyMed label for Wegovy; approved uses, dosing, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.Oral absorption is formulation- and administration-dependent and occurs predominantly in the stomach.
MetabolismProteolysis plus fatty-acid beta-oxidation [1]Regulatory labelWegovy prescribing informationCurrent DailyMed label for Wegovy; approved uses, dosing, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions.Semaglutide-related material is excreted through urine and feces; a small fraction is excreted unchanged in urine.
