Sematide 0.25mg Injection contains Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist manufactured by Ferozsons Laboratories. It is the starting dose in the Sematide range and the recommended first step for all patients beginning Semaglutide therapy, used alongside diet and exercise to control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes, reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, and support initial weight management. Each prefilled syringe of 0.188ml delivers a precise 0.25mg dose of Semaglutide, administered just once a week.

As the Semaglutide starting dose, Sematide 0.25mg is not used for maximum blood sugar control on its own. Instead, it allows the body to gradually adjust to GLP-1 therapy over the first 4 weeks before stepping up to the 0.5mg dose, significantly reducing the risk of nausea and other side effects that are more common when starting at a higher dose.

Uses:

• Starting dose for all new Semaglutide patients initiating GLP-1 therapy for type 2 diabetes
• Controls blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes alongside diet and exercise
• Reduces the risk of major cardiovascular events including heart attack and stroke in patients with type 2 diabetes and known heart disease
• Supports initial weight management by reducing appetite and slowing gastric emptying
• Used as the 4-week titration dose before progressing to Sematide 0.5mg

Benefits:

• Once-weekly GLP-1 injection making it the most convenient starting point for new Semaglutide patients
• Gradual titration approach minimizes common GLP-1 side effects including nausea and vomiting
• Cost-effective Ozempic alternative with the same Semaglutide active ingredient at a fraction of the imported price
• Ferozsons Laboratories manufacturing for trusted local pharmaceutical quality
• In stock and ready to ship with same-day Karachi delivery and 24 to 72 hour nationwide coverage
