What are the primary medical conditions or diseases for which Semaglutide is prescribed?

Hi doctor,

I am a 40-year-old male. I would like to know about Semaglutide. What is Semaglutide, and what class of medications does it belong to? What are the primary medical conditions or diseases for which Semaglutide is prescribed? Is it primarily used for diabetes management or other therapeutic uses? How effective is Semaglutide in managing diabetes or other relevant health conditions? How does Semaglutide work in the body to achieve its intended medical effects? What are the potential side effects associated with Semaglutide usage? Is Semaglutide available for over-the-counter purchase, or is a prescription required?

Thanks.
