How weight loss medication is Changing the way people lose weight

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. This weight loss medication, on the other hand, is a long-term option that provides a comprehensive way to manage your weight.

It can reduce appetite, increase metabolism and fat burning, and decrease your BMI while improving your health. This medicine mimics the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)—the hormone in the brain responsible for regulating food intake. Most patients receive a treatment plan that lasts 16-20 weeks. Your dose 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.

Is a Weight Loss Shot Right for Me?

Weight loss injections may be 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, it is not ideal for you if you have a family history of thyroid tumors or a severe history of allergic reactions to medications.

how dr. chalik & emerson medical think outside the box when addressing weight loss

One of the reasons Dr. Chalik and her medical facility Emerson Medical are so highly regarded by Staten Island residents is their ability to think outside the box when it comes to weight loss. In short, we understand that one weight loss treatment does NOT fit all. That is why Dr Chalik and her team of experts work with each patient one-on-one to fully understand their medical history and weight loss goals.

This allows them to design a weight loss plan that includes so much more than a simple medication. In fact, Dr. Chalik routinely recommends coupling many of her nutritional support services, diet services, and body contouring services with weight loss injections.

For example, weight loss medication is the perfect medication to use in tandem with a healthy diet plan, an exercise routine, and additional body contouring treatments like CoolSculpting Elite that help further improve the body's ability to burn off stubborn pockets of fat, helping you achieve your goals faster.
