What to expect

Why patients choose compounded semaglutide

Reduces appetite and constant food preoccupation

Slows gastric emptying so meals satisfy for longer

Improves how your body handles glucose

Weekly dosing, no daily routine to maintain

How it works

The mechanism

Semaglutide mimics GLP-1, a hormone your gut releases after eating. It signals fullness to the brain, slows how quickly the stomach empties, and improves insulin response. Most patients notice reduced appetite within two weeks.

Individual results vary.

Dosing

How it is taken

Starts at 0.25 mg weekly and increases in steps every four weeks based on your response and tolerance. Your provider holds you at the dose that works rather than pushing to a maximum.

Questions

Frequently asked

The needle is very fine and goes into fat under the skin of the abdomen or thigh. Most patients describe it as a brief pinch or nothing at all.

Take it as soon as you remember if it is within five days. If more time has passed, skip it and resume your normal schedule. Never double up.

Some regain is common when treatment ends, which is why your provider works with you on protein intake, resistance training and a maintenance plan rather than treating medication as the whole answer.
