Medically Supervised Weight-loss Plans

Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are medications which are similar to a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is produced in the body after eating a meal. Drugs belonging to the GLP-1 drug class are normally given as an injection and some are already available on the market to treat diseases such as type 2 diabetes and obesity. Studies of both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide suggest they have beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system, including reducing blood pressure and improving levels of fat in the blood.

• What is GLP-1?   Your body naturally produces a number of substances that affect your appetite. One of these is called GLP-1. GLP-1 is a hormone that is produced when you eat. It stops you feeling hungry and makes you feel full. It also improves your body’s ability to regulate blood sugar levels. 

• Reduced energy intake- Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide reduce feelings of hunger which means you eat less food. This helps to reduce your body weight, when combined with a healthy diet and exercise. 

•  Effect on plaques- Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have been shown to stop the progression of plaques in blood vessels in studies of animals. 

•  Reduced blood sugar- If your blood sugar levels are too high, Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide help to lower them. 

•  What are some of the most common side effects?   Not everyone will experience side effects, but if you do, you should let your Medical Weight-Loss Provider know. The most commonly reported side effects are stomach and gut problems. These may include feeling sick (nausea) or being sick (vomiting), diarrhea, upset stomach, low appetite, pain in stomach area and constipation. These side effects are usually mild or moderate. They are most likely to happen when you first start taking Semaglutide or Tirzepatide and are likely to decrease or disappear entirely as you continue. To decrease the chances of you having stomach and gut side effects, you will be started on a low dose, which will be increased gradually.
