GLP 1 Semaglutide

GLP-1 medications are a class of prescription drugs that not only improves blood sugar control but may also lead to weight loss. This class of drugs is commonly called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists. Weight loss can vary, depending on which GLP-1 drug you use and the dosage. Studies found people using Semaglutide and making lifestyle changes lost about 33.7 pounds (15.3 kilograms) versus 5.7 pounds (2.6 kilograms) in those who didn’t use the drug. GLP-1 medications are generally taken by an injection given weekly, depending on the drug.

Some of the more common side effects include:
Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea.

Side effects can often be mitigated by correctly titrating your dosage upward, so you’ll want to ensure that you are taking the medication exactly as prescribed by your provider to minimize risk and/or severity of side effects. Anti-nausea medications such as ondansetron (generic Zofran) are also helpful to assist in mitigating nausea.

Low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) are a more serious risk linked to the GLP-1 class of drugs. But the risk of low blood sugar levels often only goes up if you’re also taking another drug known to lower blood sugar at the same time, such as sulfonylureas or insulin. The GLP-1 class of drugs isn’t recommended if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or multiple endocrine neoplasia. Lab studies have linked these drugs with thyroid tumors in rats. But until more long-term studies are done, the risk to humans isn’t known. The GLP-1 class of drugs is also not recommended if you’ve had pancreatitis.

Semaglutide are weekly injections.

You can take GLP-1 medications at any time of day, regardless of meals. If your dose is prescribed weekly, be sure to take it on the same day each week.

Side effects may occur but our doctors will start you at a low dose and slowly work you up to a higher maintenance dose. This usually mitigates most of the common side effects. However, if side effects are too great, you can stop immediately and the side effects should reduce or be completely gone in a few days to 1-2 weeks.

While Semaglutide do not directly increase energy in the traditional sense (like a stimulant would), it helps by regulating blood sugar, reducing body weight, and improving metabolic health, all of which can lead to more consistent and sustainable energy levels.

If you miss a dose, contact us before taking your next one. We may need to adjust your dosage to help minimize any potential side effects.

Yes. Store your GLP-1 medications in the refrigerator between doses. These medications are sensitive to temperature and can lose effectiveness if not stored properly.

Patients should remain on their GLP-1 therapy until their weight loss goal is met. At that time, the patient should discuss with our doctors if remaining on a maintenance dose would be beneficial or trying a no-drug period would be warranted.

As with any appetite suppressant medication, appetite and cravings can come back once medication is stopped. If ingested calories start to increase, one may begin to gain weight back unless mitigated by increased activity and exercise.

GLP-1 medications are a game-changer for those looking to manage their weight effectively. These products mimic the natural GLP-1 hormone, which plays a key role in signaling your brain when you’re full and satisfied. By activating specific appetite-regulating receptors, GLP-1 medications help you feel fuller faster and for longer periods, making it easier to resist overeating or snacking. Additionally, they slow down how quickly your stomach empties food, giving you a sense of lasting fullness. This powerful combination takes the guesswork out of appetite control and empowers you to focus on your weight loss goals with confidence.

One of the biggest advantages of GLP-1 therapy is how effectively it reduces hunger and cravings, helping you feel in control of your eating habits. Many users report feeling satisfied with smaller portions and even noticing reduced cravings for unhealthy foods. While you’ll still experience hunger when your body genuinely needs fuel, the overwhelming, constant hunger that can derail weight loss efforts becomes much more manageable. GLP-1 medications are designed to make healthy eating feel natural and achievable, giving you the support you need to stay on track and succeed in your weight loss journey.
