FAQs

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are new weight loss medications used to manage obesity as a new weight loss treatment. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist. Both help regulate blood sugar levels and support weight loss. Semaglutide (sold under the brand names Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Zepbound®, and Rybelsus®) and tirzepatide (sold as Mounjaro®) are medications used in these types of weight loss treatments. All trademarks mentioned are owned by their respective companies. These medications were originally created for diabetes weight loss.

Semaglutide works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which targets areas of the brain involved in appetite control. It helps to:

  • Reduce Hunger: Decreases appetite, making it easier to consume fewer calories.
  • Increase Fullness: Enhances the feeling of satiety after eating.
  • Slow Gastric Emptying: Delays stomach emptying, prolonging fullness.

These effects contribute to significant weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Choosing generic semaglutide offers several advantages:

  • Cost-Effective: The semaglutide cost is typically lower than brand-name counterparts like Ozempic, making it more accessible.
  • Same Efficacy: Generic semaglutide provides the same therapeutic benefits as Ozempic, aiding in weight loss and blood sugar control.
  • Availability: Easier to obtain, with fewer supply shortages compared to some brand-name medications.

Semaglutide is available as a once-weekly weight loss injection. It comes in a pre-filled pen for easy self-administration under the skin (subcutaneous injection) in areas like the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.

Yes, you can obtain a semaglutide prescription through online consultations with licensed healthcare providers. At the National Sinus Institute, we offer telehealth services to evaluate your eligibility for semaglutide treatment.

The cost of semaglutide is generally lower than that of Ozempic due to its generic status. This makes semaglutide a more affordable option for many patients seeking effective weight loss medication.

Yes, semaglutide and Ozempic contain the same active ingredient and are equally effective in promoting weight loss and managing blood sugar levels. The primary difference lies in branding and cost.

Some semaglutide side effects include:

  • Nausea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Constipation

These side effects are usually mild to moderate and tend to decrease over time. If side effects persist, consult your healthcare provider.

Semaglutide is typically recommended for adults with:

  • A body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity)
  • A BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related condition such as hypertension or type 2 diabetes

A medical evaluation is necessary to determine if semaglutide is appropriate for your weight loss needs.

  • Rybelsus: An oral tablet form of semaglutide used for type 2 diabetes management, with weight loss as a secondary benefit.
  • Wegovy: A higher-dose semaglutide injection specifically approved for chronic weight management.
  • Mounjaro: A newer medication (tirzepatide) that targets both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, showing promising weight loss results.

Semaglutide remains a highly effective and affordable option, especially in its generic form.

Yes, benefits include:

  • Proven Efficacy: Demonstrated significant weight loss in clinical trials.
  • Cost Savings: More affordable due to its generic availability.
  • Once-Weekly Dosing: Convenient administration schedule improves adherence.

Absolutely. Semaglutide not only aids in weight loss but also improves blood sugar control, making it beneficial for individuals with type 2 diabetes seeking to manage both conditions simultaneously.

Semaglutide is available through the National Sinus Institute. We provide comprehensive weight loss treatments, including semaglutide injections, under the supervision of our healthcare professionals.

For optimal results, combine semaglutide with:

  • Healthy Diet: Focus on nutrient-rich, low-calorie foods.
  • Regular Exercise: Engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate activity per week.
  • Behavioral Modifications: Implement strategies to support long-term weight management.

While Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, opting for generic semaglutide provides the same benefits at a lower cost. This makes it a practical alternative to Ozempic for weight loss.

Weight loss results vary, but many patients begin to see noticeable changes within the first few weeks. Significant weight loss is typically observed after several months of consistent use combined with lifestyle changes.

Semaglutide stands out due to its:

  • Effectiveness: High success rate in promoting weight loss.
  • Convenience: Once-weekly injections are easy to administer.
  • Affordability: Generic options reduce financial barriers.

Serious side effects are rare but may include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, or kidney problems. Always discuss potential risks with your healthcare provider before starting treatment.

Begin by scheduling a consultation with our medical team. We’ll assess your health status and develop a personalized weight loss plan that may include semaglutide injections.

Yes, switching to generic semaglutide can be a cost-effective alternative without compromising efficacy. Consult your healthcare provider to make this transition smoothly.

Coverage varies by insurance plan. Our administrative team can assist you in determining your coverage and exploring financing options for your weight loss medication.

Semaglutide’s unique action on GLP-1 receptors sets it apart, offering both weight loss and blood sugar control. Its generic availability also makes it more accessible than some other weight loss drugs.

Yes, semaglutide is approved for weight loss in individuals without type 2 diabetes, especially those with obesity or overweight conditions accompanied by related health issues.

Semaglutide may interact with certain medications. Provide your healthcare provider with a complete list of medications and supplements you’re taking to avoid potential interactions.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s close to your next scheduled dose. Do not double up on doses. Follow the guidance provided by your healthcare professional.

Currently, the oral form of semaglutide (Rybelsus) is approved for type 2 diabetes management, not weight loss. The injectable form is the primary method for weight reduction therapy.

The duration of treatment varies per individual. Long-term use may be recommended to maintain weight loss benefits. Regular evaluations with your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate length of therapy.

Yes, incorporating a healthy diet and regular exercise enhances the effectiveness of semaglutide and supports sustainable weight loss.

Store your weight loss medication in the refrigerator. Do not freeze. If necessary, you can keep semaglutide at room temperature for up to 30 days and tirzepatide for up to 21 days. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for specific storage guidelines.

What is Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?

First approved as a Type 2 diabetes treatment in 2017, Semaglutide is a highly effective stabilizer for one’s glycemic levels. This medication increases the patient’s insulin levels and reduces the secretion of the peptide hormone glucagon, leading to a stabilization of blood sugar levels. Semaglutide causes a major reduction in appetite and food cravings, bringing glycemic balance to the body. While this medication is incredibly effective on its own, patients see the biggest changes when combining it with a healthy diet and regular exercise.  

How does Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work?

Semaglutide is a peptidic GLP-1 receptor agonist. GLP-1 is a hormone in the body that is responsible for controlling hunger levels. Semaglutide interacts with this peptide hormone, resulting in the patient feeling satiated after eating a smaller amount of calories than they normally would.

Semaglutide also induces insulin secretion from the pancreas in instances where blood sugar levels are too high. Beyond that, it slows down the digestive process by causing food to pass through the digestive tract more slowly. This is known as “gastric emptying,” and it causes a reduction in appetite as well as an increase in weight loss.

  • Brain: Helps regulate appetite and cravings
  • Stomach: Delays gastric emptying
  • Pancreas: It works by helping the pancreas to release the right amount of insulin when blood sugar levels are high.
  • Insulin helps move sugar from the blood into other body tissues where it is used for energy.
  • Liver: Reduces production of glucose which lowers blood sugar levels.
  • B-12: Helps stimulate and increase your metabolism

Aside from weight loss, patients taking Semaglutide have also seen a decreased risk of certain conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, joint pain, and blood pressure.

Medication Delivery

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide patients have two treatment options:

Sublingual Drops (Daily)
Simply place the liquid under your tongue for one minute daily and then drink some water.

Injections (Weekly)

Medication Savings and Benefits

On average how much would you say you are spending on food every month?
(This would include going out to dinner,
beverages, etc.)

Depending on how much weight you want or need to lose most clients will stay on the medication for 6-12 months just to make sure they can accomplish their goals.
