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, acting as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, emulates the functions of an incretin hormone to boost insulin secretion, playing a crucial role in blood sugar level regulation. Additionally, it curbs appetite and reduces food intake, contributing to weight loss. The delayed gastric emptying induced by semaglutide creates a prolonged sense of fullness, aiding in the reduction of calorie intake.
Is Semaglutide safe and FDA-approved for weight loss?
Semaglutide has received FDA approval for weight management in adults experiencing obesity or overweight conditions, along with at least one weight-related ailment like hypertension or type 2 diabetes. Its safety and efficacy for sustained weight management have been substantiated through various clinical trials.
Who is an ideal candidate for Semaglutide treatment?
Semaglutide treatment is most suited for adults who fall into the category of obesity (BMI of 30 or higher) or overweight (BMI of 27 or higher). Additionally, these individuals should have 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?
With its convenient once-a-week subcutaneous injections, semaglutide offers a simple and effective treatment option. Start with a low dose of just 0.25 mg per week and gradually increase as needed, up to a maximum of 2.4 mg per week. This tailored approach minimizes side effects and ensures optimal tolerability for each individual. Take control of your diabetes management with semaglutide.
What are the potential side effects of Semaglutide?
Possible side effects of this medication include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal pain. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney injury, and an increased risk of low blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes may occur. It is crucial to have a conversation about these potential risks with a healthcare professional.
How long does it take to see results with Semaglutide?
You can see noticeable weight loss within weeks of starting treatment. Achieve significant results within six months to a year with consistent use, diet, and exercise.
Can Semaglutide be used in conjunction with other weight loss programs or diets?
Semaglutide is compatible with additional weight loss approaches, including calorie-restricted diets and regular exercise. Crafting a well-rounded weight loss plan is essential, and it’s recommended to do so under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

Yes, you need a prescription for Semaglutide. Consult with a healthcare provider to assess your health and determine if this medication is right for you.
What is the cost of Semaglutide treatment and is it covered by insurance?
The price of Semaglutide can vary depending on the dosage and insurance coverage. Most insurance plans cover it, especially for diabetes management. However, coverage for treating obesity may differ. We recommend contacting your insurance provider for more information on coverage details.
