                                    GLP-1 medications are a method to help you lose weight by acting on your metabolism to make you feel less hungry. This way you eat less and lose more weight than you would with dieting and exercise alone.
                                 
                             
                        
                                            
                            
                                
                                    Are there side effects to the medications?

                                    When starting GLP-1 medication you may experience common side effects like nausea, diarrhea, or vomiting. These are normal and usually subside within a couple of weeks. If you experience more severe side effects, contact your provider directly through your personal portal.

                                    FDA-approved medicines such as Ozempic®, Wegovy®, and Mounjaro® contain active ingredients like semaglutide or tirzepatide. These belong to a class of medicines called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which work by mimicking natural hormones that help regulate appetite and fullness.

Ozempic is mainly used to treat type 2 diabetes, while semaglutide in other forms, like Wegovy, is also used for weight loss.

                                    Shipping times vary by state and product.
