GLP-1 drugs like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work by mimicking a hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation. It helps reduce hunger and calorie intake, leading to weight loss.
GLP-1 drugs have been approved by regulatory bodies like the FDA for weight loss. However, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine if it’s safe and suitable for your individual health needs.
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide can be compounded by pharmacies in the United States under specific circumstances, particularly when there’s a shortage of commercially available formulations of the drug.
GLP-1 drugs are typically prescribed for individuals who are overweight or obese, particularly those with weight-related medical conditions. A healthcare provider can assess whether it’s appropriate for you.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation. Monitoring by a healthcare professional is important due to rare but serious side effects.
GLP-1 drugs are usually administered through subcutaneous injections once a week, starting with a low dose and following a titration schedule.
Weight loss results can vary, but some people may start to see changes within a few weeks. Maximum results typically occur over several months of consistent use.
