Abstract in brief

  • Semaglutide shows significant long-term weight loss benefits for individuals with overweight/obesity who do not have diabetes, according to a review of randomized controlled trials.
  • Compared to a placebo group, participants using semaglutide experienced an average weight loss of 12.3 kg and about a third achieved over 20% weight loss.
  • Although there were more gastrointestinal side effects in the semaglutide group, most were mild and temporary, making semaglutide a viable option for weight management.
