Potenza Injection 1.34 mg/ml contains Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic weight management in adults. Semaglutide works by enhancing insulin secretion, reducing glucagon release, slowing gastric emptying, and promoting satiety. Potenza helps control blood glucose levels and supports weight reduction, improving overall metabolic health in patients with type 2 diabetes.
