Semaglutide is a groundbreaking, FDA-approved medication that has been clinically proven to aid in significant weight loss. Originally developed for treating type 2 diabetes, it works by mimicking a natural hormone (GLP-1) that targets the brain's appetite centers.
This Process Helps to:
Reduce hunger and cravings
making it easier to stick to a healthy eating plan.
Slow down stomach emptying
so you feel fuller for longer after meals.
Improve your body's metabolic health
by regulating blood sugar.
Semaglutide is a groundbreaking, FDA-approved medication that has been clinically proven to aid in significant weight loss. Originally developed for treating type 2 diabetes, it works by mimicking a natural hormone (GLP-1) that targets the brain's appetite centers.
While results are unique to each individual, clinical studies provide a strong benchmark. In major trials, patients taking Semaglutide for weight management lost an average of 15% of their initial body weight over 68 weeks when combined with diet and exercise.
It's important to understand that your personal results will depend on several factors, including your starting weight, your adherence to the nutrition and lifestyle plan we create for you, and your body's unique response to the medication. Our goal at Arizona Wellness Center isn't just about rapid weight loss; it's about helping you achieve a significant, sustainable reduction in weight that improves your overall health for the long term. We'll monitor your progress closely and adjust your plan to maximize your results.
The most common side effects of Semaglutide are typically mild and gastrointestinal in nature, such as nausea, diarrhea, constipation, or a feeling of fullness. These effects occur because the medication works by slowing down how quickly your stomach empties.
Our medical team has a proven strategy to minimize these side effects. We start every patient on a very low dose and gradually increase it over several weeks. This "titration" process allows your body to adapt to the medication comfortably. Furthermore, we provide you with specific dietary guidance, like eating smaller meals and avoiding high-fat foods, which can help prevent discomfort. For most people, any side effects lessen or disappear completely as their body adjusts.
Semaglutide is most effective when viewed as a tool for long-term health management, not a short-term fix. The duration of treatment varies for each person. Typically, there's an initial phase focused on active weight loss, which can last for several months to a year.
Once you approach your target weight, we will work with you to create a long-term maintenance plan. This may involve gradually reducing your dose or transitioning off the medication while using the healthy habits and strategies you've learned to maintain your success. Our primary goal is to empower you with the tools and support needed for lasting change, with or without the medication.
While Semaglutide is safe and effective for many people, it is not suitable for everyone. Your safety is our top priority, and we conduct a thorough medical evaluation to ensure you are a good candidate.
You should not take Semaglutide if you have:
- A personal or family history of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC).
- A history of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
- A history of pancreatitis.
- A known allergy to Semaglutide or any of its ingredients.
Additionally, Semaglutide is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant. We will discuss your complete medical history during your consultation to confirm if our program is the right and safe choice for you.
