Rybelsus®

Rybelsus® tablets Who or what is this Rybelsus? Semaglutide, which is the active ingredient in Rybelsus tablets, is a diabetic medication that is prescribed to persons who have type 2 diabetes in order to lower their blood sugar levels. In cases where other diabetic medications have been tried without success, a doctor may prescribe Rybelsus. This medication should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise. The tablets of Rybelsus serve to reduce the amount of glucose (blood sugar) in the blood by increasing the amount of insulin that is produced and reducing the amount of glucagon that is secreted. This drug may potentially cause a delay in the emptying of the stomach after a meal. GLP-1 receptor agonists are the type of medication that Rybelsus belongs to. The treatment of type 1 diabetes with Rybelsus is not possible. On September 20, 2019, the FDA gave its initial permission to the use of Rybelsus.
