But fear not! Our cutting-edge prescription-assisted weight loss medications are here to support you. They provide effective hunger suppression, making it significantly easier to stay on track with your goals and shed those extra pounds.
Am I Eligible?
Adults with an initial body mass index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m2 (obesity) will be considered. Patients with a BMI of ≥27 kg/m2 (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related co-morbid condition (e.g., hypertension, dyslipidemia, strong family history of heart disease, etc.) may also be candidates.
How do these medications work?
Most of the medications are a weekly shot (very small needle) injected into your abdomen. GLP-1 medications, also known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, offer a dual approach to weight loss. In the gastrointestinal tract, they slow down food movement, helping you feel full faster and reducing calorie intake. Simultaneously, in the brain, GLP-1 medications signal satiety, curbing appetite and promoting consistent, health-aligned choices. These medications can be a valuable addition to a comprehensive weight management plan, alongside lifestyle modifications.
