Semaglutide Compounded - Revive Hormone Institute

What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is an injected medication used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. More recently, it has also been used for weight loss due to its appetite-reducing effects.

Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone called GLP-1 that targets areas of the brain that reduce appetite. It also slows digestion and prevents the liver from making too much sugar.

Key points:

• Injected medication for type 2 diabetes and obesity
• Mimics appetite-reducing hormone GLP-1
• Improves blood sugar control and promotes weight loss

Benefits of Semaglutide

Semaglutide has shown considerable benefits in clinical trials:

• Significant weight loss: Patients lost an average of 12-15% of body weight over 68 weeks in trials. This amount of weight loss can greatly improve health.
• Better blood sugar control: Hemoglobin A1C dropped 1-2% for many patients. This helps reduce diabetes complications.
• Cardiovascular benefits: Semaglutide reduces blood pressure and LDL "bad" cholesterol. This likely lowers heart disease risk.
• Well-tolerated: The most common side effects are mild GI issues like nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. These often go away with time.

In short, semaglutide promotes weight loss while also improving key markers of health like blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure.

Treatment Basics

• Semaglutide is taken as a once-weekly injection with a prefilled pen device. The dosage ramps up slowly over 5-8 weeks.
• Patients should work closely with their doctor to monitor blood sugar and adjust other diabetes medications as needed.
• Most insurance plans don't cover semaglutide for weight loss yet. Our compounding pharmacy can provide customized and more affordable semaglutide treatment options.
• Patients who achieve their target weight loss goals should continue taking semaglutide to maintain results. Discontinuing treatment often leads to regaining weight.
