For example, a small retrospective study of 30 obese HS patients treated with weekly semaglutide (~0.8 mg for ~8.2 months) resulted in a 5% weight loss, a reduction in flare frequency (every 8.5 weeks to every 12 weeks), modest reductions in inflammatory markers like HbA1c and CRP, and improvement in DLQI (13 to 9)
Structural modifications to the native GLP-1 peptide give Semaglutide significantly greater stability against DPP-4 enzymatic degradation, resulting in a prolonged duration of action compared to earlier-generation GLP-1 analogs
Obesity is one of the main modifiable risk factors for diabetes and adverse cardiovascular events, the latter being the leading cause of mortality in patients with T2D [2]
