What is Semaglutide for Weight Loss?

Semaglutide for weight loss is a proven, FDA-approved treatment that helps support healthy and sustainable weight loss. Administered as a semaglutide injection, it mimics natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar levels.

This helps reduce hunger, control cravings, and support a calorie deficit. Treatment is always tailored to individual health history and goals under medical supervision.

Treatment Options

FDA-Approved Semaglutide Medications

When clinically appropriate, we prioritize FDA-approved, brand-name medications.

Wegovy

FDA-approved specifically for chronic weight management.

Ozempic

FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes, sometimes used off-label when clinically indicated.

Important coverage consideration

Wegovy is also FDA-approved to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (such as heart attack and stroke) in adults with established cardiovascular disease and obesity or overweight. For patients with a documented history of heart attack or stroke, this indication means Wegovy may be covered by many insurance plans, even when weight loss medications are otherwise excluded.

These medications have been studied extensively in large-scale trials and are prescribed based on your medical history, labs, and overall cardiometabolic risk.
