An Overview of Rybelsus: how it works, and more

If you have type 2 diabetes, Rybelsus is among the many medications you have at hand to assist in regulating  your blood sugar. Similar to other weight reduction medications, Rybelsus is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1), but its effects can vary greatly. Instead of injecting Rybelsus once a week, you take it daily as a tablet. That seems more tempting, particularly if you’re afraid of needles, but there are some important points to keep in mind when deciding if a Rybelsus prescription is appropriate for your medical situation.

For those with type 2 diabetes, Rybelsus may help reduce A1C levels when paired with consistent physical exercise and a nutritious diet. Research shows that Rybelsus reduces A1C levels by 1% to 1.3% on average, depending on dosage. Our own weight loss expert, Dr. Paunel Vukasinov, M.D., lets you know all the details of this medication; he is a double board-certified physician in internal medicine and obesity medicine who practices at Medical Offices of Manhattan in New York.
