What is GLP-1?

Semaglutide is a synthetic long-acting analogue of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), designed to improve glycemic control and support weight management. It was developed by Novo Nordisk and is marketed under major brand names.

FAQ

How much is in each vial?

Each vial contains precisely the amount indicated on the label. For instance, a 10mg vial includes precisely 10mg of lyophilized peptide. Researchers may divide it into smaller fractions, such as four 2.5mg portions, while the total amount remains 10mg.

Does it come with instructions?

USA Peptides Direct products are designated for in vitro research. Prior to working with them, conduct thorough research. Our team will offer general assistance via text post-purchase.

What other supplies are needed?

Peptides come as lyophilized powder. They are not reconstituted, and any necessary bacteriostatic water or syringes must be obtained separately for research purposes.

How long does a vial last?

Peptides remain stable for up to 2 years in lyophilized powder form. After reconstitution, refrigerate and expect stability for about 2 months.

Is Semaglutide approved for medical use?

No. When supplied as a lyophilized peptide for laboratory purposes, Semaglutide is designated for research use only (RUO). It is not approved for diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease, and is not intended for human or veterinary use.

What conditions is Semaglutide being studied for?

Semaglutide is the subject of ongoing research exploring its effects on: Glucose regulation and metabolic health, Weight management and appetite regulation, Cardiovascular outcomes, Kidney function and protection, Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver health, Neuroprotection and cognitive support, Addiction and reward pathway modulation.

What are the most common observations in research studies?

Published literature most often reports gastrointestinal effects (such as nausea or changes in motility) during dose escalation phases. These findings are context-specific and may vary across study designs.

Is it safe for human use if purchased as a research peptide?

No. Research-grade Semaglutide is not intended for human or veterinary use. It is sold strictly for laboratory research applications only.
