What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) groundbreaking prescription medication designed to aid in weight loss and improve overall health. Originally developed for diabetes management, it has been shown to help individuals reduce body weight significantly when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Please note the semaglutide we prescribed is compounded with B12 and Glycine to prevent nausea and decrease muscle wasting. Each dose is patient specific and is tailored to meet patient needs/goals.
How Does Semaglutide Work?
Semaglutide mimics a natural hormone (GLP-1) that regulates appetite and food intake. It works by:
- Reducing hunger and cravings
- Slowing stomach emptying to promote fullness
- Enhancing insulin sensitivity to improve metabolism
