All of these medications fall under GLP-1 medication category, which includes the following: Semaglutide is the active ingredient found in both Wegovy and Ozempic. Wegovy is the FDA approved brand name for Semaglutide when used specifically for weight loss. Ozempic is the FDA approved brand name for Semaglutide in a lower dose, for the treatment of adult-onset diabetes, not for weight loss. Only a physician can answer which medication is best for your body.

GLP-1 medication can typically be used for as long as needed to reach your goal weight. During the four clinical trials, study participants received GLP-1 for a period of 68 weeks (approximately 1 and a half years) without adverse effects. It's important to have regular consultations with our medical team to monitor your progress and adjust the treatment as necessary.

Both Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are GLP-1 receptor agonists that can be effective for weight management. Some studies have explored differences in their effects, but individual responses and suitability can vary. The choice between them depends on your individual health profile, medical history, and treatment goals. Dr. Carroll will discuss these options with you and, after a thorough medical evaluation, will help determine the most suitable medication for your specific needs.

No, Semaglutide is not addictive. Unlike certain weight loss alternatives like phentermine that can have addictive properties, Semaglutide works through a different mechanism of action. It mimics natural hormones in the body, specifically those involved in regulating appetite and food intake. This approach not only aids in weight loss but also aligns more closely with the body's natural processes, reducing the risk of dependency typically associated with some other weight loss medications. Our focus at BeSlimMD is on safe, effective, and sustainable weight management, ensuring that treatments like Semaglutide are both medically sound and in harmony with your body's health.

Patients in clinical trials lost 20% of their bodyweight.

The duration of weight loss with GLP-1 varies depending on individual goals and body responses. Clinical trials have shown an average weight loss of 12-16 pounds per month. However, individual results can differ. It's important to set realistic expectations and understand that everyone's weight loss journey is unique.
