SEMAGLUTIDE is generally prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater (considered obese) or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater.

Individuals who have struggled to achieve significant weight loss through diet and exercise alone may consider SEMAGLUTIDE as an option to enhance their weight loss efforts.

SEMAGLUTIDE works by reducing appetite and promoting a feeling of fullness, which can be beneficial for individuals who struggle with overeating or emotional eating.

Weight loss with SEMAGLUTIDE may lead to improvements in metabolic markers such as insulin sensitivity and lipid profile, potentially benefiting individuals with metabolic syndrome.

For some individuals, the assistance of a medication like SEMAGLUTIDE may enhance motivation by providing tangible progress in their weight loss journey, potentially improving overall compliance with lifestyle changes.

SEMAGLUTIDE is prescribed as part of a comprehensive weight management plan, including a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It is often recommended for individuals who are committed to making lifestyle changes.

Provider Consultation: Your provider will take time during your initial consultation to discuss your health history, current weight, your goals, review your BMI, and discuss your weight loss plan with prescription medication.

Medication Review: Our provider will go through the injection instructions in detail and guide you in how to inject properly at home (once weekly). We’ll answer any questions you may have about the medication and send you home with your monthly supply.

Lose Weight & Track Progress: Most of our clients report noticeable results within 4 weeks of starting, with full effects of treatment taking several months or longer. We’ll meet once a month to review your progress, answer any questions you may have, and supply you with next month’s medication.

It is a once-weekly injection. You may take it in the morning, afternoon, or evening-whichever time works best for you.

What if I miss a dose?

The medication has a 4-day window of time in which to take your dose and stay on track with your dosing regimen. If you are 5 days past your dosing date, then the recommendation is to skip that current week and resume the next week on your regular dosing day.
