Semaglutide for weight loss

The active ingredient of Wegovy is semaglutide, which reduces appetite by mimicking the action of a natural hormone called “glucagon-like peptide-1” or GLP-1, an appetite hormone made primarily in your digestive tract that targets areas of the brain to regulate appetite after eating. Its action reduces appetite and induces insulin.

Studies showed with continued use, about 77% of patients had lost weight and keep it off for over two years. On average, patients lost about 15% of their weight after 2 years time.

Wegovy affects the GLP-1 receptor in the brain that regulates appetite, and slows how quickly the stomach empties, which makes you feel fuller for longer. It also enhances the production of insulin.

You can lose weight because you will typically eat less and feel fuller when you do eat. This and similar treatments are available for long-term use if effective for you, but must use it in addition to a healthy diet and exercise to help promote weight loss.

Semaglutide and Weight Loss

Ozempic acts like a hormone that comes from your digestive tract called glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1), [which] helps lower blood sugar and creates a feeling of fullness… This can change how your body responds to food and [thus] isn’t signaling the need to eat in order to maintain your usual weight…

In recent years, the FDA has approved several new weight loss injections that are approved for long-term use. Whereas Ozempic is available for diabetics, similar drugs have been produced that operate under similar principles.

• Wegovy is approved for weight loss, using a different dosing strategy of semaglutide, since 2021.
• Mounjaro and Zepbound utilize tirzepatide, operating under similar principle, since 2023.
• Saxenda has been available since 2014.

Medical Weight Loss Doctor Aron

Dr. Aron can review these and many other available weight loss medications to assist you in your weight loss journey.

Phentermine stimulates the central nervous system to suppress appetite. Qsymia is a combination of Phentermine to suppress appetite, with Topiramate acting to decrease appetite and increase feelings of fullness. Diethylpropion and Phendimetrazine are sympathomimetic amines, stimulating the central nervous system to suppress appetite.

…Ozempic contains a hormone called GLP-1 which aids in weight loss and reducing appetite by acting on specific areas of the brain responsible for hunger and satiety. GLP-1 also slows the gastric emptying which further adds to the feeling of fullness and many report a reduced desire to eat.
