Approved by the FDA as a weight loss medication since 2021!

Semaglutide in Port St Lucie

In June of 2021 the FDA approved Semaglutide as a once-a-week injection for chronic weight management in adults and since then, it has also been approved for chronic weight loss management for adolescents ages 12 and older.

What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is a chain of amino acids or proteins called peptides that promotes weight loss. It works by increasing insulin secretion and decreasing appetite. It is important to know that to maximize results changes to diet and exercise are essential to be implemented.

How can I use Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is typically injected under the skin at the abdomen, upper arm, gluteal, and thigh area with the smallest insulin needles once a week. It is under a prescription, and it will require follow-up, so it is important to consult with a licensed healthcare provider.

How much weight can I lose with Semaglutide?

On average a patient may lose between 1-2 pounds per week. However, every patient has a different body structure and Semaglutide dosages may differ from patient to patient. In addition, a cardiovascular exercise routine combined with a low-calorie meal will increase the expected results.

What to Expect

The entire BOTOX procedure may take 15 minutes, with noticeable results within 1 to 2 weeks. No downtime is required after the procedure, and many patients get treated during their lunch break and return straight to work. We recommend that you stay upright with your head elevated for a couple of hours after treatment.

It is common that the point of injection may be swollen, red, or bruised for a couple of days after. A more severe side effect is eye droop- although it's not life-threatening or permanent. Choosing a medical provider with extensive training is essential to prevent adverse effects.

Is Semaglutide the same as “Wegovy” and “Ozempic”? 

Yes, absolutely. The Ozempic and Wegovy are brand names and were the first to launch and be available to the public. However, they do contain the identical active ingredient which is Semiglutide.

Semaglutide Frequently Asked Questions

 

No. However, when patients implement a healthy diet and lifestyle the weight loss happens faster and in a greater amount.

No. Semaglutide medication will not change your genetic predisposition to burn calories and gain weight. Therefore, the patient must develop during the months of treatment good eating and exercise routines to maintain the desired weight. In addition, some patients may take a couple of months off and get back to taking Semaglutide to reach their ideal weight.

 

The two main side effects of Semaglutide are nausea and constipation. Both side effects may be caused by incorrect patient dosage. They can also be treated with Zofran or MiraLAX. Patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) should avoid taking Semaglutide.

Because Semaglutide lowers blood sugar, combining it with other medications that do the same such as insulin and diabetes may be dangerous.

One of the reasons Semaglutide is getting a lot of attention from the media is the amount of weight loss compared to other medications. Typically, most medications during trials show an average of 5% to 10% of weight loss compared to 16% of Semaglutide.
