How Semaglutide is Changing Weight Loss

70% of Americans are obese or overweight. With such a significant problem at hand, it is easy to see why so many people are overjoyed about new medications for weight loss. While yes, there are many weight loss medicines available in the industry, however, many are short-term prescriptions and have adverse effects. Semaglutide, on the other hand, is a long-term medication that provides a comprehensive way to manage your weight.

Semaglutide reduces appetite, increases metabolism and fat burning, and decreases your BMI while improving your health. Semaglutide mimics the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)—the hormone in the brain responsible for regulating food intake. Most patients receive Semaglutide on a treatment plan that lasts 16-20 weeks. Your dose of Semaglutide gradually increases over 16-20 weeks as your body changes and burns fat like never before. In addition, the dosing schedule helps you gradually lose weight and minimizes any chance of gastrointestinal side effects.

Semaglutide vs Mounjaro

Another popular diabetes medication is Mounjaro. This prescription medication has FDA approval for controlling blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Like Semaglutide, Mounjaro is also capable of improving weight loss.

Mounjaro is an incretin mimetic in the same class as Semaglutide, but it has differences. 

It is also a glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor AND a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. This prescription medication increases the hormones responsible for making you feel full. In addition, Mounjaro slows down the digestive system so you can go longer between eating.

Semaglutide Weight Loss FAQs

  • In some situations, people can lose approximately 4% of weight in 12 weeks by taking a 1-mg dose, and weight loss of approximately 5% for people taking a 2.4-mg dose. As always, individual results will vary per person.*

  • It’s important to realize you won’t lose weight immediately with Semaglutide, but you will lose it quickly. A study in The New England Journal of Medicine found that after four weeks of Semaglutide treatments, patients experience a more than 2% reduction in body weight.

  • Yes. Since Semaglutide medications are a long-term weight management tool, you must continue taking them to see optimal results. If you stop taking it, you can expect to regain weight within a year of stopping the medication. As always, results are different for every person.* You can speak with Dr. Chalik of Emerson Medical to learn precisely what you can expect with your weight loss with Semaglutide treatments.

  • Semaglutide is a suitable treatment for adults with a BMI greater than 30 or a BMI of 27 and up with at least one or more weight-related medical issues. These issues include type-2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. However, you may not be a suitable candidate if you are at risk of developing a thyroid C-cell tumor. In addition, Semaglutide is not ideal for you if you have a family history of thyroid tumors or a severe history of allergic reactions to medications.
