What it is

How Semaglutide Injections works

Semaglutide slows how quickly the stomach empties and turns down the appetite signalling that makes a calorie deficit feel like a fight. It is injected once a week, at a dose your provider raises gradually.

The plan includes the medication, the needles and the shipping. Most people reach a maintenance dose and stay there.

How it is used

One small injection a week, at home.

Compounded semaglutide goes under the skin of the belly or thigh, on the same day each week. Most people start here, and the dose is raised gradually to limit nausea.

  • Needles, syringes and alcohol swabs come with the plan
  • Your provider raises the dose step by step, and only when you are ready
  • Most side effects are stomach-related and ease as your body adjusts
  • Questions go to your care team through the portal

Worth considering if

  • BMI 30 or higher
  • BMI 27 or higher with a weight-related condition
  • Diet and exercise have stopped moving the number
  • Hunger that does not switch off between meals

Not appropriate if

  • Anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, or MEN2
  • Anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding or planning a pregnancy
  • Anyone with a history of pancreatitis, without a provider reviewing it first
  • Anyone with active gallbladder disease, without a provider reviewing it

Appetite, turned down. Dose, turned up slowly.

Semaglutide works on the hunger signalling that makes a calorie deficit feel like a fight. It is injected weekly, and your provider moves the dose up gradually so your body can adjust.

  • Dosed and adjusted by a licensed provider
  • One injection a week, at home
  • A lower maintenance dose when you get there
  • The same price at every dose

What to know about side effects

Most people have none or mild ones. These are the ones reported most often, and your provider watches for them at every check-in.

Nausea, especially in the first weeks and after a dose increase
Constipation, reflux, burping
Fatigue while your intake drops
Stop and contact a provider for severe, persistent abdominal pain
Contact your provider or seek care straight away if you have chest pain, shortness of breath, swelling or pain in one leg, or trouble speaking. This is not a complete list, so tell your provider about every medication and condition you have. Full safety information

Answers

Questions people ask first

How is this cheaper than the brand?

It is a compounded preparation of the same active ingredient rather than the branded product, and the plan is priced per three months rather than per pen. What you get on top is the provider managing the dose.

When am I charged?

$420 at checkout. A licensed provider reviews your intake, usually the same day. If treatment is approved it ships free; if it is not appropriate for you, you are refunded in full.

Do I need bloodwork?

No. Only testosterone plans start with a hormone panel. Your provider orders labs here only if your history calls for it.

What happens when I stop?

Appetite usually returns. That is why the plan includes a lower maintenance dose, and why stopping is a conversation with your provider rather than a decision to make alone.

Safety

Before you start

This treatment is prescription-only and is issued solely at the discretion of a licensed provider following a clinical evaluation. Tell your provider about every medication and condition you have, including anything you take that was not prescribed here.

Two minutes to find out if it fits

Answer a few questions and a licensed provider takes it from there. Every price is on the page, and nothing is prescribed unless it is appropriate for you.
