Medical weight loss injections activate the actions of two natural substances in your body called Glucose-dependant insulinotropic polypeptides (GIP) and Glucagon l-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). The injections primarily work by regulating your appetite giving you sense of satiety (fullness). Making you feel less hungry and experience less cravings.
By mimicking the effect of both naturally occurring hormones, medical weight loss injections have been shown to have greater weight loss potential than medicines that work on GLP-1 alone.
Weight loss results are promising, with clinical trials showing that at 72 weeks of consistent medical weight loss injection use, the average weight loss was 22.5%.
Various doses of the injections are available with patients starting on a lower dose of 2.5mg and gradually increasing each month as needed.
Medical Weight Loss Injections available for patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or over. Or a BMI of 27 and over where additional health conditions relating to body weight such as high blood pressure are present.
