About Semaglutide
Semaglutide is the generic name for Ozempic and Wegovy, the GLP-1 medication that is rapidly gaining popularity as a safe and effective long term option for weight loss.
In order to increase the efficacy, and offset some of the side effects, our pharmacists have developed what we are calling Semaglutide+. The cocktail consists of Semaglutide (Ozempic) combined with BPC157 (gastro protective peptide), and Vitamin B6 that is administered Subcutaneously once a week.
The medication dosing can be adjusted based on how you tolerate the medication and your weight loss goals.
If you do not feel comfortable administering the medication we can even send a nurse to your home to administer it for you!
About Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide is the generic name for Mounjaro. Tirzepatide is also a GLP-1 medication but also has acts as a GIP agonist. The result is a medication that produces weight loss that is slightly greater than Semaglutide in recent clinical trials.
In order to increase the efficacy, and offset some of the side effects, our pharmacists have developed what we are calling Tirzeapatide+. The cocktail consists of Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) combined with BPC157 (gastro protective peptide), and Vitamin B6 that is administered Subcutaneously once a week.
Just like with Semaglutide, the medication dosing can be adjusted based on how you tolerate the medication and your weight loss goals.
GLP-1 Medications Fight Weight with Biology
GLP-1's are different from older classes of prescription weight loss medications because they work on key underlying metabolic pathways to support sustained weight loss.
Recent research has shown that GLP-1 Medications as an adjunct to diet and exercise, was associated with reduced body weight and improved metabolic control.
Reduced Inflammation
GLP-1 medications are clinically proven to reduce inflammation markers, leading to decreased inflammatory response and oxidative stress.
Shift Set Point
GLP-1s aid in shifting your body’s set point (the weight your body fights to maintain) by impacting areas in the brain—to help curb cravings, make you feel full faster, and increase your energy expenditure.
Regulate Digestion
GLP-1 medications slow how quickly food moves from the stomach to the intestines. This helps you feel full for longer by regulating sugar absorption in the intestine.
Improve Metabolic Function
GLP-1s medications regulate blood sugar levels by increasing insulin and decreasing glucagon—only when blood sugar levels are high. GLP-1 medications also improve whole-body energy metabolism by increasing insulin sensitivity of muscle cells and regulating fat cell development.
What to Expect
Semaglutide (Ozempic) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) are GLP-1 agonists medications. This class of medications are analogues of naturally occurring hormones that send a signal to your brain telling you are full. This "fullness hormone" curbs your appetite, decreases your food intake, and leads to significant weight loss.
The average weight loss is 15-22% of a persons weight while on GLP-1 medications such as Semaglutide (Ozempic) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro).
Not only do these medications help you lose weight, but it helps keep the weight off by reducing your body weight set point.
Side Effects
Some side effects of the medication include but are not limited to: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, fatigue, headache, decreased appetite, dyspepsia, GERD, gastritis, pancreatitis.
These side effects are rare and typically subside with time as your body adjusts to the medications. Side effects are also dose dependent so it is important to let your doctor know how you are doing with the dose you have been taking before increasing the dose of the medication.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms please speak with your physician to decide whether or not continued use of the medication is right for you.
