Frequently asked questions

What is Compound Semaglutide?

Compound Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a naturally occurring hormone in your body. It's compounded by licensed pharmacies and prescribed by board-certified providers for weight management. It works by reducing appetite, slowing gastric emptying, and improving blood sugar regulation.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Clinical studies show patients can lose 12-18% of their body weight on average over 6-12 months. Individual results vary based on adherence, lifestyle factors, and starting weight. Your provider will set realistic goals and monitor your progress throughout treatment.

What are the common side effects?

The most common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, decreased appetite, vomiting, and constipation. These are typically mild to moderate and often improve over time. Your provider will start you on a lower dose and gradually increase it to minimize side effects.

How is Semaglutide administered?

Semaglutide is administered as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection. Your treatment kit includes pre-measured syringes and detailed instructions. The injection takes just a few seconds and most patients find it simple and painless after the first few times.

Is this covered by insurance?

Compound Semaglutide is typically not covered by insurance as it's a compounded medication. However, we offer competitive self-pay pricing at $249/month and flexible payment options through Affirm, Afterpay, Klarna, and PayPal to make treatment accessible.

Who is a good candidate for Semaglutide?

Ideal candidates are adults with a BMI ≥27 with weight-related health conditions or BMI ≥30. You should be committed to making lifestyle changes including diet and exercise. Your provider will review your health history to determine if Semaglutide is right for you.

How long will I need to take Semaglutide?

Treatment duration varies by individual. Many patients continue for 6-12 months to achieve their goals, with some choosing to continue longer for maintenance. Your provider will work with you to determine the optimal treatment timeline based on your progress and goals.

What's the difference between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while Tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist. Both are effective for weight loss, but Tirzepatide's dual mechanism may provide additional benefits. Your provider can help you choose the best option for your specific needs.

How quickly will I see results?

Most patients notice initial appetite reduction within the first week. Visible weight loss typically begins in weeks 2-4 and continues with consistent use. Benefits build over time, with significant results usually apparent by 3-6 months of treatment.

Can I use Semaglutide if I have diabetes?

Semaglutide can be beneficial for people with type 2 diabetes, as it helps improve blood sugar control. However, your provider will need to review your complete medical history and current medications to ensure it's safe and appropriate for you.

What support do I receive during treatment?

You'll have access to board-certified providers for ongoing monitoring and adjustments. We provide regular check-ins, progress tracking, and lifestyle guidance. Our care team is available to answer questions and support you throughout your weight loss journey.
