frequently asked questions
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are both GLP-1 receptor agonists used for weight loss, but Tirzepatide has a dual-action mechanism, targeting both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. This dual action makes Tirzepatide more potent and may result in more significant weight loss compared to Semaglutide.
Common side effects of Semaglutide include nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal discomfort. These side effects are usually mild and temporary as your body adjusts to the medication.
Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are administered via a once-weekly injection. Your healthcare provider will guide you on how to administer the injections at home, or you can schedule regular visits for support.
Many patients start to notice weight loss within a few weeks of beginning Semaglutide treatment. However, optimal results typically occur over several months with consistent use, along with adherence to a healthy diet and exercise routine.
It’s possible to combine these medications with other weight loss strategies, such as diet, exercise, and behavioral counseling, for a more comprehensive approach. However, it’s essential to discuss any combination of treatments with your healthcare provider to ensure safety and effectiveness.
If you stop taking Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, you may experience a return of your appetite and could potentially regain the weight you’ve lost. To maintain your progress, it’s important to have a plan in place that includes continued healthy eating and regular exercise. Always consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing treatment, as they can help you transition to a long-term maintenance strategy to sustain your weight loss results.
The cost of treatment with Semaglutide or Tirzepatide varies depending on your specific needs and the duration of the program. During your initial consultation, we’ll discuss the details of your personalized plan and provide a clear understanding of the associated costs. Our team is committed to offering options that fit your budget while ensuring the highest quality of care.
