📋 Product Specifications

How Semo Works

Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Semo, is a long-acting analogue of the natural hormone GLP-1. It prompts the pancreas to release insulin only when blood glucose is high, suppresses glucagon, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite; which is why it improves blood sugar control and often produces gradual weight loss as a secondary effect. At 3mg, these effects are intentionally mild; the purpose of this dose is to build tolerance, not control blood sugar.

💊 Dosage and Administration

●        Take one 3mg tablet once daily on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning, with no more than 120ml of plain water.

●        Wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking anything else, or taking other oral medicines.

●        This is the initiation dose only; do not stay on it beyond 30 days without your doctor's guidance, and do not split, crush, or chew it.

⚠️ Side Effects

●        Common: nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, reduced appetite, abdominal discomfort

●        Less common: constipation, heartburn, bloating, fatigue

●        Serious but rare: pancreatitis and severe allergic reaction; seek medical care immediately if these occur

Semo Uses

Semo Tablet is used for:

●        Glycaemic Control: improving blood sugar (HbA1c, fasting and post-meal glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes, as an adjunct to diet and exercise

●        Combination or Monotherapy: as monotherapy when metformin is unsuitable, or combined with other diabetes medicines such as metformin, SGLT2 inhibitors, or insulin

●        Cardiovascular Risk Reduction: lowering the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease

●        Secondary Benefit: gradual, doctor-supervised weight loss (approved for diabetes management, not specifically for chronic weight management)

Who Should Use Semo

Semo suits adults with type 2 diabetes who need better blood sugar control alongside diet and exercise, including those who can't tolerate metformin or have established cardiovascular disease, and who a doctor has assessed as suitable for oral GLP-1 therapy. This 3mg strength is specifically for patients who are new to Semaglutide and starting their first month of treatment.

🚫 Who Should Avoid It

Avoid Semo, or use only under close medical supervision, if you or a family member has a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or MEN 2, or a known allergy to Semaglutide. It is not for type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe gastrointestinal disease. A history of pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, or significant kidney/liver impairment needs assessment first, and it should generally be stopped at least 2 months before a planned pregnancy; discuss with your doctor if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Can It Be Taken Long Term?

Yes, Semo is typically an ongoing, long-term treatment, taken for as long as your doctor advises and you tolerate it well, with periodic review of HbA1c, kidney function, and side effects.

🛡️ Precautions and Drug Interactions

●        Insulin or Sulfonylureas: combining these with Semo raises the risk of low blood sugar; your doctor may lower their dose

●        Other Oral Medicines: Semo slows gastric emptying, which can affect absorption of other tablets; tell your doctor everything you take

●        Existing Conditions: flag any history of pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, kidney disease, or diabetic eye disease before starting

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is Semo 3mg Tab used for?

Semo 3mg Tab contains Semaglutide and is used, together with diet and exercise, to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is also used to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes and established heart disease. At this starting strength it is not intended to control blood sugar on its own; its purpose is to build tolerance before the dose is increased.

Is Semo 3mg the starting pack or a later pack?

Semo 3mg is the starting pack. It is taken once daily for the first 4 weeks of treatment to help the body adjust to oral Semaglutide before your doctor moves you up to the 7mg maintenance dose.

What is the correct dose escalation schedule for Semo (Semaglutide)?

Semo is taken once daily by mouth. Treatment starts at 3mg for at least 4 weeks, then increases to 7mg for at least 4 more weeks, and to a maximum of 14mg if further glycaemic control is needed; only on your doctor's advice.

How should I take Semo 3mg?

Take Semo 3mg once daily on a fully empty stomach, first thing in the morning, swallowed whole with no more than 120ml of plain water. Wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking any other liquid, or taking other oral medicines; taking it any other way significantly reduces how much Semaglutide is absorbed.

What are the side effects of Semo 3mg?

The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, reduced appetite, and abdominal discomfort, especially in the first few weeks or after a dose increase. Less common effects include constipation, heartburn, bloating, and fatigue. Combining Semo 3mg with insulin or sulfonylureas raises the risk of low blood sugar. Serious but rare risks include pancreatitis and severe allergic reactions; seek medical care if these occur.

Who should avoid Semo 3mg?

Avoid it, or seek medical advice first, if you or a family member has a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, if you have type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. A history of pancreatitis or severe gastrointestinal disease also needs a doctor's assessment first.
