WEIGHTLOSS

GLP-1’s Coming Soon

GLP-1 weight management treatments are prescription-based medications that may help influence appetite regulation and metabolism. These options are designed for individuals considering a medically supervised approach to weight management. A consultation with a licensed medical practitioner is necessary to determine if GLP-1 therapy might be appropriate for your individual needs.

ABOUT WEIGHTLOSS

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) receptor agonists are medications that may affect hunger signals and glucose metabolism. These treatments work similarly to natural hormones that help regulate appetite and digestion. They may be incorporated as part of a comprehensive wellness program that includes lifestyle modifications.

What It Is

GLP-1 medications are administered through injections prescribed by a licensed medical practitioner. These medications may:

  • Help regulate appetite by promoting feelings of fullness

  • Support metabolic function

  • Assist with blood sugar regulation, which might help manage cravings

  • Individual experiences may vary, and treatment plans are personalized based on medical history and wellness goals.

What to Expect

Consultation: A licensed medical practitioner will review your health history to evaluate if GLP-1 therapy could be suitable.

  • Treatment Plan: If prescribed, you'll receive instructions for medication administration.

  • Ongoing Monitoring: Follow-up appointments may be recommended to monitor progress and adjust dosage as needed.

  • Some patients may experience temporary effects such as nausea, digestive changes, or fatigue, which often diminish over time.

How It Works

  • Compounded Semaglutide is a medication that may support weight management efforts. As a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist, it works similarly to the body's natural GLP-1 hormone.

    This medication may help:

    • Support balanced blood sugar levels after meals

    • Promote feelings of fullness by delaying stomach emptying

    • Potentially reduce calorie intake

  • Some individuals may experience temporary effects including nausea, digestive changes, or tiredness, which often lessen with continued use.

  • Results may vary, and maintaining consistent treatment alongside healthy habits may contribute to wellness goals. Many patients find tracking their progress helpful during their journey.

  • Compounded Semaglutide may be an option for individuals with a BMI of 30 or greater, or those with a BMI of 27 and weight-related health considerations such as hypertension or insulin resistance.

  • It is injected subcutaneously, typically in the abdomen.

  • Not appropriate for:

    • Pregnant or breastfeeding women

    • Those with history of pancreatitis

    • Individuals with Type-1 diabetes

    • Those with allergies to its ingredients

    • People with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2

    Consult a medical professional to determine if this option aligns with your health needs.
