FAQ

What is semaglutide?

Semaglutide for medical weight loss is a prescription medication specifically designed to help individuals achieve and maintain weight loss. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it mimics the action of the glucagon-like peptide-1 hormone that regulates appetite and food intake.

Are there side effects of semaglutide?

Every patient is different when it comes to potential side effects. Lifestyle, genetics, and medical history all play apart in how your body reacts to the injections. We do offer supplements, lifestyle management, and diet recommendations with your treatment plan that can be used to mitigate potential side effects from semaglutide and support a healthy lifestyle.

How often should I give myself a semaglutide injection?

Patients need to give themselves one injection per week. Patients continue to give themselves their injections until their goal body weight is achieved. Once patients are ready to come off of semaglutide, we offer them a maintenance plan to help with this transition.

Do I need to come in every week for my injections?

Nope, we give you everything that you need to do your weekly injections at home! If you are nervous about injecting yourself, we do have the option of booking your weekly injection in the clinic.

Do I need to be on semaglutide forever?

No, you do not need to be on semaglutide forever but every patient is different and every patient has a different goal weight. After you have achieved your ideal body weight, we tailor patient’s off semaglutide slowly to where they feel they no longer need to take the injections.

What does my lifestyle look like on semaglutide?

On semaglutide, your lifestyle will focus on healthy eating with smaller, balanced meals due to reduced appetite. Incorporating regular exercise, staying well-hydrated, and ensuring adequate sleep are key to optimizing your results. Routine check-ins with a provider will help monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
