Along with a balanced diet and regular exercise, weight loss injections can help boost metabolism, increase energy levels, and suppress appetite. They can also aid in targeting stubborn fat areas that may be resistant to traditional weight loss methods. By incorporating weight loss injections into a holistic weight loss plan, individuals may see faster and more sustainable results.
SEMAGLUTIDE
Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor antagonists, or GLP-1 RAs. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone, released in the gut in response to eating. In higher amounts, it interacts with the part of the brain that suppresses your appetite and signals you to feel full. When used in conjunction with diet and exercise, it can cause significant weight loss.
Research has shown that individuals who implement exercise and diet lifestyle changes, in conjunction with semaglutide injections, have lost 15-20% of their body weight in 68 weeks.
For weight management, Semaglutide is given as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection weekly starting at 0.25mg that is titrated every 4 weeks until the desired dose is achieved, which can take up to 17 weeks. If a dose is missed for more than 5 days, we skip that dose and go back to regular dosing schedule. We do NOT double doses. Blood sugar should start to fully decline within the first week after starting semaglutide. Full effects can take 8 weeks or longer.
There is no specific time frame when someone should stop taking semaglutide - it is intended for long term use; however, suddenly stopping semaglutide can cause weight gain. Regular follow ups and maintaining healthy lifestyle changes help reduce rebound weight gain.
TIRZEPATIDE
Tirzepatide mimics the hormone GLP-1, which curbs appetite and slows down the digestion process, leading to a prolonged feeling of fullness. Additionally, it imitates the GIP hormone (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide), and helps reduce blood sugar levels by limiting sugar production in the liver and boosting insulin production. Dual targeting may result in a greater weight loss and better glucose control.
Dosages of tirzepatide for weight loss vary and are determined based on individual factors. Tirzepatide is administered via subcutaneous injection once a week. The patient's dosage will gradually increase to achieve optimal results while minimizing potential side effects. While individual results may vary, many patients have lost 30 pounds in the first three months of treatment!
