Ozempic is a once-a-week injection used to treat type 2 diabetes and support weight loss in Malaysia. It works as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it helps lower blood sugar, slows down how fast the stomach empties, and reduces appetite. This makes weight control easier and more sustainable.
Most people start with a dose of 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg per week using an Ozempic injection pen. Clinical studies show that Ozempic can greatly improve blood sugar levels and help with weight reduction. However, people with diabetic retinopathy should talk to their doctor before using this treatment.
Ozempic (semaglutide) is a once-a-week injection used to treat type 2 diabetes and help with weight loss. It is backed by clinical studies and is known to help people lose up to 10–15% of their body weight over 6–8 weeks.
Ozempic improves insulin response and keeps blood sugar levels stable. It also reduces appetite and slows digestion, making it a safe and non-surgical option for long-term weight and metabolic health.
Ozempic supports weight management and metabolic health through several key actions:
Stimulates insulin release only when blood sugar rises, preventing sudden spikes.
Slows digestion for steady glucose absorption.
Reduces appetite and cravings, making healthy eating easier.
Lowers cardiovascular risk in adults with type 2 diabetes.
These combined effects make this injectable pen a trusted option for managing obesity, insulin resistance, and related metabolic conditions safely and effectively.
For adults with type 2 diabetes, it’s clinically proven to:
Improve blood sugar control
Lower HbA1c levels
Reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications
Support long-term diabetes management
It is especially recommended for patients who haven’t achieved adequate glucose control with metformin or other oral medications.
Like all medications, Ozempic may cause side effects:
Common: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation
Less common: Low blood sugar, especially when used with insulin
Rare: Pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, thyroid problems
A licensed doctor will evaluate your medical history to determine if Ozempic is safe and appropriate for you.
In Malaysia, Ozempic typically costs between RM800 and RM1,800 per month, depending on the dosage and clinic. Being a prescription-only medication, the total cost may also cover doctor consultations and follow-up care.
At GLOJAS, we offers at RM1,500 per month under specialist supervision, including professional consultation, dosage guidance, and ongoing medical monitoring to ensure safe and effective weight management.
Endocrine neoplasia syndrome is a rare inherited condition that can cause tumors in glands like the thyroid, pancreas, or adrenal glands. For those considering this medications, this condition is an important safety concern. Individuals with a history of multiple endocrine neoplasia should avoid these treatments unless closely monitored by a healthcare professional. Always consult your doctor to assess personal risks and ensure safe, effective use of diabetes and weight-management medications.
Ozempic pens, typically prescribed at 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg once weekly, help manage type 2 diabetes alongside diet and exercise and may also support weight loss. The treatment is generally safe and effective, but common side effects can include digestive discomfort, nausea, or shortness of breath.
More serious risks may affect people with type 2 diabetes who also have chronic kidney disease, diabetic retinopathy, or cardiovascular conditions, including heart attack or stroke. Rare but important concerns include multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome or other endocrine-related disorders, which require close medical supervision. Understanding both the benefits and risks is essential for safe and effective Ozempic use.
