SEMAGLUTIDE

Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, is a prescription drug that can help with weight loss by mimicking glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a hormone that regulates appetite and digestion. This results is reduced cravings, decreased appetite, improved blood sugar control and change in body composition. Semaglutide is a non-habit forming weight loss treatment that has helped patients lose on average 16.9% of their body weight in 68 weeks with 1 in 3 patients losing more than 20%.

 

  • Semaglutide mimics a natural protein found in your body called “GLP-1”. This protein signals your brain to regulate appetite, especially after eating, which helps you to eat less. The proteins also slows how quickly the stomach empties, which makes you feel fuller longer. This allows you the time to make more mindful foot choices. Additionally, the medication triggers your body to produce and release insulin. Insulin helps your body utilize and ‘burn’ the glucose after you eat a meal. This improves blood glucose levels and helps with weight loss.

  • Some common side effects may occur when starting treatment. These may include: abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Most side effects are minimal and tolerable. You should always speak with your provider if your aren’t able to tolerate the side effects.

  • You should not take this medication if you have a history of:

    -Personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer

    -History of multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome

    -History of pancreatitis

    -Pregnancy, trying to get pregnant or breast feeding

TIRZEPATIDE

Tirzepatide, the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound, is both a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and a gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonist. These two incretin hormones work together to stimulate insulin secretion after a meal is eaten, and aid in more effectively burning the fuel. This in turn helps to lower blood sugar. Combined with reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity, clinical trial participants lost up to 20% of their starting weight.

 

  • Tirzepatide is a unique medication that mimics two hormones naturally found in the body: GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones:

    * Regulate hunger, which can lead to eating lesser eating

    * Stimulate the release of insulin, which is responsible for reducing blood sugar.

    * Reduces the time for the stomach to empty its contents, suppressing appetite.
