Semaglutide, 0.5 mg/mL
Injected subcutaneously (pre-filled pen) in the upper arm (preferred site), in the abdomen, or in the thigh according to participant's preference. The participant will be asked to wear an eye blindfold during the time of the study medication/placebo administration, to avoid compromising blinding. It is not possible to blind the researcher administering the medication/placebo because semaglutide comes in specific pre-filled pens. The person who administers the subcutaneous injection will be suitably trained and experienced, and have been authorised to do so by the Principal Investigator - they will not be involved in other aspects of the study for that participant to avoid compromising blinding.
Placebo, 0.9% NaCl 1.5mL
Injected subcutaneously (subcutaneous injection syringe) in the upper arm (preferred site), in the abdomen, or in the thigh according to participant's preference. The participant will be asked to wear an eye blindfold during the time of the study medication/placebo administration, to avoid compromising blinding. The person who administers the subcutaneous injection will be suitably trained and experienced, and have been authorised to do so by the Principal Investigator - they will not be involved in other aspects of the study for that participant to avoid compromising blinding.
