What semaglutide does

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. In plain terms, it mimics a hormone your body already makes that helps regulate appetite and how full you feel. For many people, that means less hunger, fewer cravings, and a quieter relationship with food.

It is a medical tool that works best alongside the support, check-ins, and dose adjustments your doctor provides over time.

Two ways to take it

Your doctor will help you choose based on your preferences and your plan.

Weekly

Weekly injection

A small once-a-week injection you do at home. Most patients start here. Your doctor steps the dose up slowly to help your body adjust.

Daily

Daily pill

Prefer to skip needles? An oral form taken daily may be an option your doctor can consider for you.

Side effects & safety

The most common side effects of GLP-1 medications are digestive (nausea, reduced appetite, and changes in digestion), and they're usually most noticeable early on or right after a dose increase. For many people these ease as the body adjusts. Gradual dosing and ongoing physician oversight are part of the plan.

Your physician reviews your history, talks through the risks and benefits with you, and adjusts your plan to balance comfort and results.

Compounded semaglutide is prepared by state-licensed pharmacies. It is not reviewed or approved by the FDA for safety or effectiveness, is not the same as commercially available brand-name products, and carries additional risks. Talk with your licensed provider about whether a compounded medication is right for you.

Semaglutide FAQs

How is semaglutide different from tirzepatide?
Semaglutide works on one hormone pathway (GLP-1). Tirzepatide works on two (GLP-1 and GIP). They can affect people differently, and your doctor helps you decide which fits your health and goals. Compare tirzepatide →
Is semaglutide included in the price?
Yes. Compounded semaglutide is included in the $199/month all-inclusive Basic membership, along with your doctor, check-ins, and dose adjustments. No separate pharmacy bill.
How long until I might notice a difference?
It varies from person to person, and doses are increased gradually on purpose. Your doctor sets expectations with you and tracks how you're responding over time. Individual results vary.
