Some people notice a metallic or off taste, foods they used to love losing their appeal, or Bruising and Injection Site Reactions on Semaglutide Bruising and mild injection site reactions, meaning redness, a small lump, itching, or tenderness, are common with subcutaneous semaglutide and are usually harmless

As mentioned, GLP-1RAs are increasingly used in the treatment of T2MD owing to their following advantages: lowering of the levels of blood glucose, reducing body weight, improving the function of islet, and exerting potential cardiovascular benefits (206)

In contrast, while the dose-response relationship between -cell responsiveness to glucose (expressed as the slope of the linear relation between insulin secretion rate and the glucose concentration) and GLP-1 levels in circulation is partially impaired a phenomenon referred as GLP-1 resistance (62) a therapeutic infusion of GLP-1 at a pharmacological dose can restore -cell insulin secretion responsiveness to glucose levels comparable to those observed in nondiabetic individuals (62)

This means carefully regulating how sugar enters their cells and is stored or used
