Safety & Considerations
-
Use only under medical supervision. Semaglutide-based therapies are regulated; in South Africa, the regulatory body SAHPRA has cautioned about quality and legitimacy of unregistered GLP-1 products.
-
Possible side-effects (based on GLP-1 class drugs): nausea, vomiting, constipation, changes in digestion, possible gallbladder effects, or pancreas-related risks. Gradual dose increase helps mitigate.
-
Not a substitute for lifestyle — diet and exercise remain foundational.
-
Not suitable for everyone: Contra-indications may include certain thyroid conditions, pancreatitis history, or type 1 diabetes.
