Weight Loss Medications

by | Jul 3, 2022 | Articles, Conditions, Weight loss

Many prescription medications may assist with weight loss efforts.  Rather than simply guessing, we match the mediation that best suits your needs.  This may be related to how you feel, for example, if you are constantly hungry, suffer from cravings, or struggle with emotional / stress eating.  Or it may relate to physical issues, for example if you have high insulin or low growth hormone.

Amlexanox – reduces inflammation and increases metabolism

Semaglutide (Ozempic) – works by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food intake

Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) – works by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) – targets areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food intake – increasing insulin secretion, decreasing glucagon secretion, increasing insulin sensitivity, and delaying gastric emptying

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) – mimics several pituitary hormones (FSH, LH, TSH) and seems to promote fat loss without muscle loss
