Medication Assisted Weight Loss
Medication Assisted Weight Loss
The current medication for weight loss is semaglutide, a type 2 diabetic drug that lowers blood sugar and maintains blood sugar levels. Clinical trials expanded once it was discovered that semaglutide had other benefits, including decreased appetite and medical weight loss in Sequim, WA. As a result, in 2019, Semaglutide was FDA-approved for those patients with a BMI of 27 or greater with at least one comorbidity, for weight management.
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. It mimics GL-1 by increasing the production of insulin. Insulin is a hormone lowering blood sugar levels. Semaglutide for weight loss suppresses your appetite, and the peptide semaglutide inhibits the areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food intake.
Weight loss with prescribed semaglutide includes a lab review, nutrition program, and monthly monitoring. Our medical weight loss program in Sequim, WA, also monitors how much weight you have lost on different strengths of semaglutide.
