-
Significant Weight Loss: Semaglutide injections have been associated with substantial weight loss, with some individuals achieving up to 20% reduction in body weight.
-
Long-Lasting Results: Semaglutide's effects on weight loss have been reported to be relatively durable. This means that individuals who lose weight while on the medication may experience benefits even after discontinuing the treatment.
-
Improved Metabolic Health: In addition to weight loss, semaglutide has been associated with improvements in various metabolic parameters. These can include reductions in fasting blood sugar levels, improvements in insulin sensitivity, and decreases in markers of inflammation.
-
Risk Factors Reduction: Besides its effects on weight and metabolism, semaglutide has been linked to reductions in other risk factors associated with obesity-related health issues.
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide stands out as a compelling option in the realm of weight loss interventions. Positioned as a leading medical solution for weight management, semaglutide presents an appealing alternative to the commonly prescribed weight loss medication, phentermine. Notably, its efficacy places it second only to bariatric surgery in terms of the substantial weight loss it facilitates. This is of particular significance as weight loss surgery entails substantial risks, limiting its applicability to a mere 1% of those requiring intensive weight loss measures.

Clinical Data:
In a New England Journal of Medicine study, non-diabetic patients taking maximum-dose semaglutide for 68 weeks lost around 15% of total body weight (about 34 pounds). Notably, 70% lost at least 10%, 50% lost 15%, and 33% lost 20%. Semaglutide also lowered cardiometabolic risks, reducing blood pressure, lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, and waist measurements, while decreasing inflammation. It improved physical function and lean body mass. While not suitable for everyone, consulting a physician before starting is important.

How does Semaglutide work?
Semaglutide is a member of one of the newest classes of medications used to treat Type-2 diabetes called GLP-1 agonists. When GLP-1 agonists were initially used to treat Type-2 diabetes many patients also lost weight and were found to have a host of health benefits including a reduction of cardiovascular problems such as coronary artery disease and stroke prevention, and regression of Type-2 diabetes. Semaglutide is maximally effective for weight loss at doses that are significantly higher than what is currently recommended for the treatment of Type-2 diabetes.
You may have heard the names Ozempic™ and Rybelsus™ for the treatment of Type-2 Diabetes. This is semaglutide. It’s also sold under the name of Wegovy™ for the treatment of obesity and in patients that are overweight who also have other cardiometabolic risk factors such as hypertension, pre-diabetes, Type-2 diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, amongst others. Currently, Wegovy™ is generally not covered by insurance and costs about $1,300 per month. Wegovy™ is listed on the FDA list of drugs that are in short supply.
Semaglutide is safe with minimal side effects. When people experience these side effects, they are generally mild and often improve over time. To minimize their occurrence the semaglutide starts out at a very low dose and increases gradually every 4 weeks. Studies show that the best results are achieved at the max dose. The most common side effects are gastro-intestinal such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, heartburn, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, upset stomach, belching, and gas. Fatigue, headache, tiredness, and dizziness can happen but are more rare.
Some patients report if semaglutide is stopped, weight loss can be reversed. With that said, there are no studies to determine if behavioral support and lifestyle changes will prevent weight gain if semaglutide is stopped. We use a ramp down approach to help with this. During our program, patients are taught to create better lifestyle and eating habits to increase the body's adoption of the achieved weight lost.
Our Semaglutide Weight Loss Program enables patients to shed up to 4 pounds each week, all without the need for restrictive diets or extensive hours at the gym.
