FAQ GLP-1 & Peptide Therapy
What are GLP-1 medications?
GLP-1 medications are prescription therapies that help regulate appetite, reduce cravings, and support metabolic health. They work by mimicking a natural hormone in the body that helps control hunger and blood sugar levels.
Which GLP-1 options do you offer?
We offer Compounded Semaglutide and Compounded Tirzepatide, both prescribed by licensed medical providers following a medical consultation.
What is the difference between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?
Semaglutide targets the GLP-1 receptor to help reduce appetite and support weight loss.
Tirzepatide provides dual GLP-1 and GIP support, which may offer enhanced appetite regulation and metabolic benefits for some individuals.
A licensed provider will help determine which option is best for you.
Who is a good candidate for GLP-1 therapy?
GLP-1 therapy may be appropriate for adults who:
• Struggle with weight management
• Experience frequent cravings or appetite dysregulation
• Have difficulty losing weight through diet and exercise alone
Eligibility is determined through a medical consultation.
Is GLP-1 therapy medically supervised?
Yes. All GLP-1 medications are reviewed and prescribed by licensed medical providers after a comprehensive consultation.
How long does it take to see results?
Results vary by individual. Many patients begin noticing appetite changes within the first few weeks. Consistency, dosage, and lifestyle factors all play a role in outcomes.
Are there side effects?
Some individuals may experience mild side effects such as nausea, fatigue, or digestive changes, particularly when starting treatment or increasing dosage. A provider will review risks and benefits during your consultation.
Do I need to follow a diet or exercise plan?
While no strict diet is required, healthy nutrition and regular movement can enhance results. Providers may offer guidance to support your success.
