Frequently Asked Questions
What is GLP-1 weight loss medication?
GLP-1 receptor agonists are FDA-approved medications that reduce appetite, slow digestion, and regulate blood sugar, mimicking natural hormones that control hunger and satiety.
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Clinical studies show patients typically lose 15-20% of their body weight over 12-18 months. Results vary based on individual factors.
Who is a good candidate for GLP-1 therapy?
GLP-1 medications are recommended for adults with BMI of 30+ or BMI of 27+ with weight-related health conditions.
What are the common side effects?
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation are most common, especially when starting. These usually improve as your body adjusts.
How often do I need to take the medication?
GLP-1 medications are administered as a once-weekly injection that can be done at home.
What is the difference between GLP-1 and GLP-1 + GIP?
Both are effective. GLP-1 + GIP targets both receptors for dual-action and has shown slightly higher weight loss in studies.
Do I need to diet and exercise while on GLP-1?
While effective on their own, combining with healthy habits enhances results and helps maintain weight loss long-term.
