Semaglutide is an injectable medication used for treating type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management. As a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, it helps regulate blood sugar levels and reduces appetite.
Studies show semaglutide promotes significant weight loss in overweight and obese patients compared to placebo. It reduces hunger, calorie intake, and body fat mass. The average patient loses 10-15% of their body weight over 68 weeks.
Semaglutide shots improve glycemic control by stimulating insulin secretion and reducing glucagon levels. Clinical trials demonstrate lower HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and body weight with once-weekly semaglutide injections.
Beyond glucose control and weight loss benefits, semaglutide also has positive cardiovascular effects. It reduces risk factors for cardiovascular disease like high blood pressure and unhealthy cholesterol levels.
Patients meet with our clinical team to review health history, set weight loss goals, and determine if semaglutide treatment is appropriate. We order lab tests to assess hormone, nutrient and metabolic status.
Once approved, patients receive customized treatment plans with detailed instructions on self-administering semaglutide shots. We provide all necessary supplies and teach proper injection techniques.
Patients follow up every 4-8 weeks to monitor progress, adjust dosing, and proactively address any side effects. Our dedicated patient care team provides support through convenient virtual visits.
Ignoring signs and symptoms of obesity, prediabetes or type 2 diabetes can allow these conditions to silently progress. Patients who pursue timely evaluation and treatment like semaglutide halt disease progression and reduce risk of complications. Our clinical team helps patients partner with their doctors to access the most effective treatments.
