GLP Weight Management Options
GLP-based medications work with the body’s natural appetite and metabolic signals to support weight management. They may help reduce hunger, quiet persistent thoughts about food, improve portion control and help you feel satisfied sooner and longer after eating.
When combined with balanced nutrition, physical activity and medical guidance, GLP-based weight management may support improvements in body weight, waist circumference, blood sugar, A1C, cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure and other weight-related health markers. Results vary based on the medication, dosage, medical history and individual response.
Benefits That May Go Beyond Weight Loss
-
• Reduce hunger, food cravings and persistent “food noise”
• Improve portion control and help you feel satisfied longer
• Support healthy blood sugar and insulin response
• Improve A1C levels in appropriate patients
• Reduce waist circumference and excess body fat
• Improve cholesterol and triglyceride levels
• Support healthier blood pressure
• Improve certain heart-health risk factors
• Reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events in certain eligible patients when using specific approved medications
• Improve symptoms of obesity-related sleep apnea with certain approved medications
• Support liver health and improve certain weight-related metabolic conditions
• Reduce physical strain on joints and improve mobility
• Support energy, confidence and overall quality of life
• Potentially reduce alcohol cravings and consumption, according to emerging research
Benefits vary by medication and individual. GLP-based medications are not approved to treat alcohol-use disorder, and research into their effects on alcohol cravings and other compulsive behaviors is still developing.
Understanding the Options
Semaglutide
Semaglutide works primarily through the GLP-1 pathway. It helps regulate appetite, slow digestion and improve feelings of fullness. Semaglutide is an active ingredient used in FDA-approved medications for certain eligible patients.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide works through both GLP-1 and GIP pathways. This dual-action approach supports appetite control, fullness and blood sugar regulation. Tirzepatide is an active ingredient used in FDA-approved medications for certain eligible patients.
Retatrutide
Retatrutide is a triple-action medication being studied for its effects on GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors. Research is examining its potential effects on appetite, metabolism, blood sugar and body weight. Retatrutide remains investigational and has not been approved by the FDA for weight management or any other condition.
Finding the Right Option
There is no single option that is right for everyone. Medical history, current medications, previous weight-management attempts, individual goals and tolerance should all be considered before beginning treatment.
Our team coordinates the required medical evaluation to help determine eligibility and whether an available GLP-based option may be appropriate for you.
Important Information
Prescription and medical evaluation required. GLP-based medications are not appropriate for everyone and may cause side effects, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation and abdominal discomfort. Additional risks and contraindications may apply.
Compounded preparations are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness or quality before being dispensed. Individual results vary and weight loss is not guaranteed. Retatrutide remains investigational and should not be presented or provided as an FDA-approved treatment.
