The most frequently reported include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation
Moreover, muscle biopsies from older athletic participants showed improved mitochondrial respiration compared to age-matched and physically impaired participants 331
The oral delivery of semaglutide required years of pharmaceutical development and uses a specialized absorption enhancer called SNAC (sodium N-[8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino] caprylate) to temporarily increase gastric permeability
The SELECT trial, enrolling over 17,000 patients with established cardiovascular disease over nearly 40 months, confirmed the cardiovascular safety of semaglutide and demonstrated net benefit in a high-risk population
