Weight Loss Medication

Semaglutide

Semaglutide was originally developed for adults with type 2 diabetes and can also be used to help those who are overweight or obese lose weight. It is recommended for those with comorbidities including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes in particular. Semaglutide regulates appetite and food intake by mimicking the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). The medication is administered by injection at gradually increasing doses through the course of treatment and makes it easier for patients to follow reduced calorie diets.

CJC 1295 / Ipamorelin

CJC 1295 / Ipamorelin treatment is a combination of two peptides which stimulate one side of the pituitary gland to produce growth hormone. This combination helps patients build muscle more efficiently and has also been shown to decrease body fat, shorten recovery times after injury, improve sleep quality, and improve cognitive function. These effects help patients stay on track with their exercise plans, reaching weight loss goals faster.

AOD

AOD 9604, known commonly as “AOD,” is a peptide which stimulates the pituitary gland. In doing so, AOD helps patients reduce body fat, prohibits the storage of non-fatty foods as body fat, increases the metabolism, and can assist in faster recovery after injuries. This peptide mimics the effects that natural growth hormones have on fat metabolism but does not affect blood sugar. It can be a good option for patients who are obese and improves the effects of a reduced calorie diet and exercise plan.

Sarcotropin

Sarcotropin is a medical food which is intended to reduce muscle loss and other signs of aging. Sarcotropin’s benefits include increases in muscle mass, increased strength, improved energy levels, improved sleep quality, and enhanced cognitive function. The medical food can be a good option for older patients who want to lose weight but face increased difficulty doing so compared to their younger years.

Tesofensine

Tesofensine is a medication which was originally developed to treat Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, but was shown to trigger weight loss as well. The drug may also be useful in treating type 2 diabetes. Patients taking Tesofensine may lose up to 12% of their body weight when pairing the medication with a healthy, balanced, reduced calorie diet and suitable exercise program.

Hormone Optimization

Hormones play a significant role in our ability to lose weight, controlling factors such as fat burning, muscle building, energy levels, sleep quality, hunger cues, and more. Hormonal imbalance commonly causes unwanted weight gain, and patients often find it more difficult to lose weight when their hormones fluctuate with age. For these reasons, hormone optimization can be beneficial for patients looking to lose weight. The best hormone optimization options vary for each patient, so it is best to see an expert for a consultation to determine a personalized treatment plan.
