Semaglutide – A Game Changing Medication For Weight Loss

Semaglutide is gaining popularity quickly, and for good reason, IT WORKS!  In clinical trials participants lost an average of 15% of their body weight while taking Semaglutide. That means for someone weighing 200lbs, the AVERAGE weight loss was 30 lbs. Many participants lost 40 lbs, 50 lbs, and more.

How Does Semaglutide Work

Semaglutide is a non-stimulant appetite suppressant that acts like a hunger-regulating hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).  Its works by delaying stomach/gastric emptying which makes you feel full longer after eating a smaller amount of food. It also reduces blood glucose levels by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin. Semaglutide has been clinically proven to significantly reduce appetite and therefore calorie consumption leading to weight loss and overall health improvements.

Who should not take Semaglutide?

Patients whose family has a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2) should not take Semaglutide. Speak with your healthcare provider if you have kidney problems, pancreas problems, have a history of diabetic retinopathy (loss of vision), or are breastfeeding, pregnant, or plan to become pregnant before taking Semaglutide.

What Are The Side Effects Of Semaglutide?

Like most medications, Semaglutide does have side effects. Semaglutide side effects are usually very mild and occur most often at the beginning of treatment.

Common side effects include:

Semaglutide should be used in combination with diet and exercise to be both effective and to help manage initial side effects. Over-eating or eating junk food while taking Semaglutide has been reported to increase the intensity of side effects. Eating smaller portions and low calorie, low-sugar foods has been reported to reduce the side effects significantly.

Semaglutide does have several potentially serious side effects. In laboratory trials it has been shown to cause tumors in the thyroid (including cancer) in some cases. It may also cause inflammation of the pancreas, low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), kidney problems, or serious allergic reactions.

Getting Started On Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a once weekly self-administered injection. After your first appointment, if you have been found medically qualified for Semaglutide, you will be prescribed the starting dosage for the first 4 weeks. If well tolerated, the Semaglutide prescription may be increased to an intermediate dosage in the second month, and again in the third month. If the medication is still well-tolerated after the third month, it may be increased to the maximum dosage per week in the fourth month and maintained thereafter.
