Semaglutide oral vs injectable

[Anonymous]

Some brands of Semaglutide come in both an oral and injectible form. Why would one be better than the other? I’m assuming the oral isn’t as effective or else why would anyone opt to inject themselves?

The only legit oral version is Rybelsus. You have to take it on an empty stomach and wait at least 30 minutes to eat. Results overall indicate less weight loss.

Injection vs pill is because of how the peptide in the medicine is processed by the body - oral is more quickly broken down which lessens the efficacy

Compounded oral semaglutide is notoriously ineffective and particularly the sublingual versions. Just a waste of money

Wegovy makes an oral version.

Wegovy is a medication, not a manufacturer. It doesn’t make anything. Oral semaglutide is Rybelsus, and there are also compounded versions of oral semaglutide.

Has anyone tried this? I'm wondering if side effects might be milder.
