Can I Get Semaglutide For Weight Loss?

Semaglutide injections are often used to treat type 2 diabetes, but may be prescribed to be used for weight loss. It is often used together with regular diet and exercise to help control your blood sugar, lower your risk of heart attack, stroke, or death, and avoid heart/blood vessel disease. 

When used in conjunction with diet and exercise, semaglutide may improve your weight loss and help you keep it off under certain conditions. The injection comes in the form of a liquid solution filled in a prefilled dosing pen to inject under the skin. With any prescribed medication, we strongly advise you to follow the label directions carefully and use semaglutide as directed.  

It’s also important to note that semaglutide may not work for everybody because there are different types of obesity and each body composition is different from the other. However, when it is successful and you experience some early mild results, semaglutide can help a person shed 15% of their body weight with the right exercise and diet. 

How Do You Qualify For Semaglutide?

Once again, semaglutide is only available with a doctor’s prescription at this time. You will need to consult your doctor or physician before getting semaglutide injections from us. We want to stress that not everyone may be eligible for semaglutide treatment and there are several qualifications for you to receive injections. 

Doctors can prescribe semaglutide for obese or adults with a body mass index (BMI) of greater than 30 or an overweight individual with a BMI greater than 27, who is also dealing with weight-related medical problems such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. 

During your discussions with doctors, your personal or family health history is taken into detailed consideration. We want to help you avoid medication complications when using semaglutide. In general, people with certain endocrine or thyroid tumors should avoid using the injections, as well as some people who have had cancer. 

Tell your doctor if you’re taking any current medications, vitamins, nutritional supplements, or herbal products as well. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant or breastfeed, let the doctor know as well to avoid complications with the pregnancy. 

If you have cleared these conditions and are given the approval by your scooter after your discussion, you may qualify for semaglutide treatment to help manage your weight. 

How Much Weight Will You Lose On Semaglutide?

For people undergoing semaglutide, they experienced 10% to 15% of weight loss in randomized controlled clinical studies. Participants who experienced this weight loss were already overweight or obesity and were administered 2.4 mg of subcutaneous Semaglutide, long with changing lifestyle habits such as diet and exercise. 

Another scientific study looked at 1,961 adults with a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related health condition or a BMI of 30 or higher without diabetes. You are categorized as overweight if your BMI is between 25 to 29.9 and obese if your BMI is 30 or more. Each participant was randomly selected to inject themselves once weekly for 68 weeks with either 2.4 milligrams of semaglutide or a placebo dose. The researchers also used a technique in 140 participants called dual-energy absorptiometry (DEXA), which clinically assesses your body composition to monitor the effects of semaglutide on total body fat and fat around the stomach. 

The results after treatment found that a good amount of people taking semaglutide had improved body composition. They had reduced their excess body fat and mitigated abdominal fat to increase the proportion of their lean body mass. The more body weight a participant lost under semaglutide, the greater the improvement in their overall body composition.

What Does Semaglutide Do To The Body?

Semaglutide works by matching a hormone in your body called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). To help you lose weight, these hormones target areas of the brain and gut that regulate appetite and food intake. As a result, it helps produce feelings of fullness with limited food portions. 

Semaglutide injections help the pancreas release the right amount of insulin when blood sugar levels are high. It works by slowing the movement of food through the stomach, decreasing your overall appetite and being a significant factor towards your weight loss. This process is called gastric emptying, which slows down the digestive progression of your stomach contents into the first part of the small intestine. This effect may wane over time, but semaglutide relies on triggering specific actions in the brain to help you lose weight and control your blood sugar. 

Is Semaglutide Good For Weight Loss?

The results of semaglutide can vary, but most people who have undergone the treatment have had varying successes to help them lose excess weight. Semaglutide is great for people who adopt a healthy lifestyle and are keeping active and eating health regularly. It helps people adhere to a reduced-caloric intake with their daily meals without overeating with big portion sizes. 

As such, to get the most optimal results from semaglutide, you will also need to engage in serious lifestyle changes to improve your chances of the medication’s efficacy. Although semaglutide isn’t a foolproof weight loss solution, it is a viable treatment option to help curb obesity and manage a person’s weight loss progression.
