FAQs
Have questions about medical weight loss, telehealth consultations, or our treatment options? You're in the right place.
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 medication originally developed to help regulate blood sugar. It works by reducing appetite, slowing stomach emptying, and helping the body feel full longer. Medications such as Ozempic® and Wegovy® contain semaglutide and are commonly prescribed for weight management when combined with lifestyle changes. At Medicology Health, licensed providers evaluate whether semaglutide is appropriate for your individual health goals.
Tirzepatide is a newer medication that activates both GLP-1 and GIP hormone receptors, helping regulate appetite, metabolism, and blood sugar levels. Medications like Mounjaro® and Zepbound® contain tirzepatide and may produce significant weight loss results for eligible patients. Your Medicology Health provider will determine which medication is most appropriate for your medical history and goals.
