Weekly Injections Dosage Plan
Your weight loss doctor will make a dosage plan based on your medical history and overall health after your teleWellness consultation. Typically, patients are started on a lower dosage and as your doctor receives feedback on your progress they may increase your dosage.
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 agonist. Such drugs mimic the GLP-1 hormone's ability to diminish hunger and delay digestion.
FDA-approved semaglutide, which has undergone thorough clinical research to assure efficacy and safety, is the primary component of both Wegovy* and Ozempic*. Other medications for weight loss don't have the same track record as semaglutide, and doctors also have less familiarity with them.
Compounded semaglutide is semaglutide that is prescribed to a specific patient and produced at a compounding facility licensed by the FDA or a state pharmacy board. The components of compounded medications must come from vendors that have received FDA approval, and such drugs must be tested for potency, sterility, and purity.
It is legal to compound drugs, but FDA pre-market approval is not necessary because such drugs are not mass-produced for the general public. Rather, they are manufactured in response to particular requests from healthcare professionals. Because of this, the dosages and methods of administration for these prescriptions can differ from those of name-brand medications that are sold commercially.
Semaglutide is subcutaneously self-injected once per week. Thanks to the medication's ability to slow digestion and gastric emptying, users consume fewer calories. Food moves through your stomach more slowly when you take the medication, which prolongs feelings of fullness and reduces appetite.
Additionally, semaglutide affects the part of the brain linked to hunger and cravings, giving users more control over the size and frequency of their meals.
Medical weight loss is a holistic, doctor-directed strategy for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. It entails a personalized regimen that can include dietary adjustments, physical activity, behavioral modification, and, if needed, prescription drugs like semaglutide.
Patients who receive this treatment not only lose weight, but also learn how to keep it off.
Many people have attained their weight loss goals through participation in medical weight loss programs. These programs take a tried-and-true approach to weight loss that goes beyond diet and exercise to enable patients to lose weight more effectively.
Your virtual consultation will be similar to a normal visit to the doctor. More specifically, the physician will review your medical records, assess your eligibility for semaglutide, and, if appropriate, help you set realistic weight loss objectives.
The price of semaglutide injections can vary according to several factors, including where you live, how much of the drug you’re prescribed, and whether your insurance will cover it. In general, though, you should set aside about $800 to $1,000 every month if you don't have insurance.
Semaglutide injections are at least partially covered by some Medicare programs and health insurance providers. For individuals who are having financial difficulties, Novo Nordisk offers a patient assistance program.
The Sanctuary Wellness Institute’s weight loss clinic in Media, Pennsylvania prescribes semaglutide injections through telehealth. We deliver our patients' medication straight to their homes so they can administer it themselves.
When you work with the Sanctuary, the entire process of obtaining semaglutide injections is completed online. Our patients conveniently schedule and attend online doctor’s appointments, submit payments, and get their semaglutide prescriptions filled from the comfort of their own homes.
The time it takes to begin losing weight on semaglutide can vary between individuals. But according to research, weight loss normally occurs within the first few weeks of using the medication.
The time it takes to lose 20 pounds on semaglutide can vary greatly from patient to patient due to factors like metabolic rates, physical activity levels, and dietary habits. However, semaglutide users can expect to lose about five pounds per month, meaning it would take the average user about four months to drop twenty pounds.
While semaglutide is effective at generating weight loss, which can include the loss of “belly fat,” which can include the loss of “belly fat,” or visceral fat stored around the abdomen, it's important for users to maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise routine to optimize their results. Semaglutide is not a miracle drug.
The timeline for weight loss on semaglutide can vary significantly among patients depending on factors such as dosage, diet, exercise, and metabolic rate. However, many users report experiencing the most noticeable weight loss after three to six months of consistent use.
The duration of your semaglutide treatment will be determined by your goals, your body's reaction to the medication, and your physician’s guidance. That said, semaglutide is usually taken for long-term weight loss. Patients often use the medication for several months, a year, or even longer.
Ultimately, a medical professional should determine the precise length of your treatment based on your response to semaglutide and weight loss progress.
Like any medication, semaglutide injections have side effects. The most common ones include constipation, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, and an upset stomach. Usually, these side effects go away as your body acclimates to the medication.
However, you should still speak with your doctor before using semaglutide. In addition, you should contact them if you experience any severe or long-lasting side effects while using semaglutide.
