About Kayshild

Kayshild is a solution for injection in prefilled pens.

What it is used for

Kayshild is used to improve metabolic health problems such as overweight or obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood sugar or fat levels.

How it is used

Kayshild can only be obtained with a prescription and is injected once a week, under the skin of the abdomen (belly), upper arm or thigh. Treatment will start at a low dose that is gradually increased every 4 weeks for the first 16 weeks until you reach the recommended dose.

How it works

The active substance in Kayshild, semaglutide, acts in the same way as GLP-1 (a natural hormone in the body). By mimicking GLP‑1, semaglutide acts on receptors in the brain that control hunger, helping people feel less hungry and fuller after meals, which leads to reduced food intake and weight loss. At the same time, semaglutide improves how the body controls blood sugar levels, allowing it to be used more effectively. This helps to improve the metabolic health problems that underly MASH, such as overweight or obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood sugar or fat levels. Semaglutide also lowers the build-up of fat in the liver and reduces inflammation caused by the disease.
