Is Semaglutide Right for You?

Semaglutide is a weight loss medication that helps you accomplish your long-term weight management goals. This new and effective answer to losing weight is part of a category of medications that reproduce the effect of what is known as the GLP-1 (Glucagon-like Peptide) hormone in the human body. This hormone is naturally released in the gastrointestinal tract when you eat, triggering the production of insulin to lower blood glucose and regulate appetite.

Semaglutide contains a modified variant of the molecule that enables the medication to remain in your body for weeks as opposed to the brief amount of time in which the hormone lasts naturally. As a result, the production of glucose becomes self-regulating, and helps the body burn off fat, converting it to energy.

Semaglutide is now available as a weekly injection or a daily sublingual dose. Each method is highly effective as a weight loss solution to fit your lifestyle. Both versions are now FDA approved after nearly a decade. FDA approved ingredients of GLP-1 medications are compounded in licensed US pharmacies under State Board oversight. Only pharmaceutical grade USP/NF base GLP-1 ingredients with Certificate of Analysis are used — no research grade or salt forms.

Sublingual and Injectable Medications Now Available

How You Take Your
Semaglutide Dosage
is up to You

Injectable – Semaglutide
Weight Achievement Center offers an injectable version of Semaglutide, which enables you to receive a weekly injection from one of our medical staff, or to administer the medication yourself through a weekly injection. This version of the medication has been approved for use as a weight management solution since 2014. With a weekly dose, more medication is directly introduced into the bloodstream to ensure efficacy and the dosage can be increased at a gradual pace in order to reduce potential side effects.

Sublingual – Semaglutide
Sublingual Semaglutide is a daily dose that allows for the medication to be absorbed underneath the tongue, dissolving easily, since it gets introduced into the body quickly. The medication is absorbed through the mucus membranes and enters the bloodstream through the small blood vessels under the tongue.
The use of liquid doses for a sublingual method of medication allows for a gradual increase in dosage with smaller amounts taken on a daily basis. Sublingual doses are available in a variety of strengths, which can be chosen by your Weight Achievement Center physician to best address your weight loss needs.

Frequently asked questions

What is Semaglutide and how does it aid in weight loss?
Semaglutide is a hormone that acts like incretin, helping to control blood sugar levels by increasing insulin release. It also decreases hunger and food consumption, promoting weight loss. Semaglutide delays stomach emptying, making us feel full for a longer time, which can assist in lowering calorie intake.
Is Semaglutide safe and FDA-approved for weight loss?
Semaglutide is FDA-approved for adults who are overweight or obese and have at least one weight-related condition, such as hypertension or type 2 diabetes. Through multiple clinical trials, it has been proven to be safe and effective in managing weight over the long term.
Who is an ideal candidate for Semaglutide treatment?

Semaglutide treatment is optimal for adults with specific qualifications, encompassing a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (classifying as obese) or 27 or higher (classifying as overweight). Additionally, ideal candidates should present at least one weight-related condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.

How is Semaglutide administered and what are the dosage options?

Semaglutide is a medication administered via subcutaneous injections, and is typically given once a week. To ensure minimal side effects and enhance tolerance, the dosage is incrementally raised over a period of several weeks. The initial dose is typically 0.25 mg per week, but can be adjusted up to 2.4 mg per week as needed, depending on the individual’s reaction and ability to tolerate the medication.

What are the potential side effects of Semaglutide?

Mild side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal pain. In rare cases, serious side effects such as pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, kidney injury, and increased risk of low blood sugar in individuals with type 2 diabetes may occur. Make sure to consult a healthcare professional to understand and discuss these potential risks.

How long does it take to see results with Semaglutide?

Expect to see weight loss within a few weeks of starting treatment, although results may vary. With consistent use, diet, and exercise, significant weight loss is usually achieved within six months to a year.

Can Semaglutide be used in conjunction with other weight loss programs or diets?

Semaglutide is compatible with other weight loss methods like consuming fewer calories and exercising regularly. It is crucial to work with a healthcare professional to create a well-rounded weight loss plan.

Is a prescription required for Semaglutide, and how can I get one?

Yes. Securing a prescription for Semaglutide involves consulting with a healthcare provider. Prior to prescribing the medication, the healthcare professional will carefully assess the individual’s health status, medical history, and suitability for the treatment.

What is the cost of Semaglutide treatment and is it covered by insurance?

Find the best price for Semaglutide based on your dosage and insurance. Most insurance plans cover it for diabetes management, but coverage for obesity treatment may differ. Contact your insurance provider for detailed coverage information.
