Our Promise to You
We will be available to you and support you every step of the way!
It is a GLP-1 agonist. 'Agonist' means it is similar to a naturally occurring hormone in our body called GLP-1.
GLP-1 is produced in the body after eating a meal.
GLP-1 medications are used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity.
- It makes you feel full which ultimately decreases hunger and cravings.
It also helps regulate your insulin and blood sugar levels.
These effects lead to weight loss.
Weight loss can help improve conditions that are closely related to weight: sleep apnea, high cholesterol, diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, etc.
Studies indicate most patients lose 10-15% of their body weight.
Weekly subcutaneous injections are given using a very small needle (similar to the needle diabetics use to inject their insulin).
You will need to come into the office every week for the first 4-6 weeks.
After the first 4-6 weeks, if you are comfortable injecting yourself, you will not need to come in every week.
