How Ozempic® Works
How Ozempic® works to lower blood sugar and A1C in adults with type 2 diabetes
Non-insulin Ozempic® works with your body’s own ability to lower blood sugar and A1C. Ozempic® is designed to respond when your blood sugar rises, helping your body to release its own insulin.
Ozempic® works in 3 ways to lower blood sugar:
1
Helps your pancreas release more insulin when your blood sugar is high
2
Helps prevent your liver from making and releasing too much sugar
3
Slows down food leaving your stomach
