What is Semaglutide and how does it work?

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist that works by mimicking a hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in regulating appetite and food intake. It helps you feel full faster and reduces cravings, making it easier to eat less and lose weight naturally.

Who is eligible for Semaglutide treatment in Atlanta?

Semaglutide is typically prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related health condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.

How much weight can I expect to lose with Semaglutide?

Clinical trials have shown that patients can lose an average of 15-20% of their body weight over 68 weeks of treatment. Individual results vary based on factors like starting weight, diet, exercise, and adherence to the treatment plan.
