How The Medication Works
Giving you the how, what, when, and why of the newest weight loss, doctor-prescribed, medicine.
How Treatments Are Provided:
-
Get approved for injectable Semaglutide by one of our in-house, certified doctors.
-
After approval, choose to get injected at our clinic by one of our certified medical assistants or at-home, once per week.
-
Patients that are new to Semaglutide go through a titration process during their first 6 weeks of treatment to let their body gradually adjust to the medication. (Weeks 1 & 2: 30 units, Weeks 3 & 4: 40 units, Week 5 & thereafter: 50 units)
Medicine You Can Count On
The doctor-prescribed, weekly treatment is a custom-blended medication that is individually formulated for each patient, called Semaglutide or GLP-1.
Every time we eat, a specific hormone is automatically released in our body that gives us a feeling of fullness. The medicine targets the brain and mimics that full feeling, plus reduces appetite, slows stomach emptying, and ultimately decreases your caloric intake.
​
Your body also has a "set point" which is the number on the scale that your weight normalled hovers around. The treatment plan creates a new, lower set point after you reach your target weight.
​
Approximately 70% of American adults are obese or overweight. Being obese or overweight is a serious health issue, including heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, and is linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancer.
​
Losing 5% to 10% of body weight through diet and exercise has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease in adults who are either overweight or obese.
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) analog. GLP-1 is a hormone produced in the small intestine that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion thereby lowering blood sugar.
​
Studies show that semaglutide reduces appetite, improves eating control, and reduces food cravings, in addition to improving glycemic control.
