Eligibility for semaglutide treatment for weight loss primarily targets adults with obesity or overweight conditions who have not achieved significant weight loss through diet and exercise alone. Specifically, individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obese), or a BMI of greater than 27 and less than 30 (overweight) with at least one weight-related health condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol, may qualify for semaglutide treatment. Before prescribing semaglutide for weight loss, doctors conduct a thorough medical evaluation to assess your overall health, review your medical history, current medications, and any potential risks or contraindications for semaglutide treatment. This evaluation is crucial to ensure your safety and appropriateness of semaglutide.
