Semaglutide for Weight Loss

What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide has been revolutionizing the way men and women lose excess weight. This medication is a synthetic liquid that most closely resembles the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1) hormone that naturally occurs within the body. GLP-1 is generally released into the digestive system as a response to eating and works to reduce blood sugar levels. Because of this response, semaglutide is also a common treatment for those who suffer from type II diabetes.
However, high doses of GLP-1 – or semaglutide – work as a natural appetite suppressant and signal the body to feel fuller from smaller portions of food for longer periods of time. When used as directed by a medical provider in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise, semaglutide is a safe and effective facilitator for weight loss.
What Can I Expect During Semaglutide Treatment?
Semaglutide is an injectable treatment and should be administered via injection once each week by the patient or the patient’s loved one. Most patients find the injections to be simple and painless. There are three places a patient can administer their semaglutide injections – the upper arm, the thigh, or the stomach. We ask that patients take turns rotating between each location for ultimate results.
What happens if you miss a dose? In the event a dosage of your semaglutide is missed, we encourage you to administer the medication as soon as you remember. If you’re close to the next dosage of your medication, however, please skip your missed dosage altogether and proceed with your next treatment as normal and directed by your provider.
What Results Can I Expect from Semaglutide?
Patients can expect to lose weight within just the first few weeks of starting their semaglutide treatment plans. Often, patients begin to feel the effects of their semaglutide treatments immediately, as the medication suppresses their appetite and makes them feel more satiated with their smaller portions of food for longer periods of time. For ultimate results with your semaglutide treatments, we encourage you to lead a healthy and active lifestyle.
