Prescription care, not a shortcut
What is semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a prescription GLP-1 receptor agonist. For appropriate patients, an FDA-approved semaglutide product may be prescribed alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for chronic weight management. It can affect appetite and slow stomach emptying. A licensed medical provider must determine whether it is appropriate for you.
- Medical history and medication review
- Individualized candidacy assessment
- Ongoing monitoring and plan adjustments
Medication is prescribed only when clinically appropriate. The exact product, pharmacy, cost, and treatment plan are discussed during consultation. Individual results vary.

Care that begins
with context.
Personalized plan
If treatment is appropriate, your provider explains the medication option, expected follow-up, lifestyle support, and alternatives.

Important safety information
Candidacy requires a medical review.
Semaglutide is not right for everyone. Tell your provider about all health conditions, medicines, supplements, pregnancy plans, and previous reactions to GLP-1 medications.
- Do not use during pregnancy. Stop and contact your prescriber if pregnancy occurs.
- Do not use if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid carcinoma, or if you have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
- Discuss any history of pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, kidney problems, diabetic retinopathy, severe stomach-emptying problems, or planned surgery or deep sedation.
- Common adverse effects can include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, and fatigue. Serious reactions are possible.

Common questions
Before you begin.
Who may be a candidate for semaglutide weight management?
Eligibility depends on a full clinical assessment. Your provider will consider BMI, weight-related medical conditions, health history, current medications, previous weight-management efforts, and contraindications.
How quickly will I lose weight?
There is no guaranteed amount or timeline. Response varies, and treatment works best as part of a broader plan that includes nutrition, physical activity, sleep, and follow-up care.
Is every semaglutide product FDA approved?
No. FDA-approved products undergo review for safety, effectiveness, and quality; compounded products are not FDA approved. Your provider should clearly identify what is being prescribed and where it will be filled.
Can I use semaglutide with another GLP-1 medication?
Do not combine semaglutide with another semaglutide-containing product or GLP-1 receptor agonist unless a qualified prescriber specifically directs your care.
