Customized Weight loss Plan just for You!

Compounded Semaglutide, known by brand names like Ozempic and Wegovy, is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. FDA approved for weight management due to its impressive efficacy in promoting weight loss. Semaglutide mimics the action of the GLP-1 hormone, which regulates appetite and food intake. By slowing gastric emptying and enhancing feelings of fullness, it helps reduce overall caloric intake.

Compounded Tirzepatide, marketed under the brand name Mounjaro, is a dual GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 receptor agonist. This newer medication is FDA approved and has shown significant potential for weight reduction. Tirzepatide targets both the GIP and GLP-1 receptors, providing a synergistic effect that enhances insulin secretion, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite. This dual action offers a unique approach compared to single-action treatments like Semaglutide.

Semaglutide:

• Weight Loss: In clinical trials, patients using Semaglutide experienced an average weight loss of 15-20% of their initial body weight.
•  Improves glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Tirzepatide:

• Weight Loss: Clinical trials have shown that Tirzepatide can lead to weight loss of up to 20-25% of initial body weight. 
• Its dual mechanism may offer superior glycemic control and weight loss outcomes compared to single-action treatments.
• Enhanced Efficacy: Offers superior glycemic control and weight loss outcomes due to its dual action on GIP and GLP-1 receptors.

Semaglutide:

• Mimics GLP-1 hormone action.
• Slows gastric emptying.
• Enhances feelings of fullness.

Tirzepatide:

• Targets both GIP and GLP-1 receptors.
• Enhances insulin secretion.
• Slows gastric emptying.
• Reduces appetite through a dual mechanism.

Choosing between compounded Semaglutide and compounded Tirzepatide depends on various factors, including your medical history, weight loss goals, and potential side effects. It’s essential to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the most suitable option for your needs.

The difference between compounded GLP-1/GIP with B6 and compounded GLP-1 with B12 lies in the added vitamin and its intended supportive benefits: 

• GLP-1 compounded with B6:
  • Function: Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) aids in breaking down proteins and fats and supports the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which can improve mood and energy levels.
  • Potential Benefit in Compounded GLP-1: It may help reduce nausea, a common side effect of GLP-1 RAs, and manage anxiety and fatigue.
• GLP-1/GIP compounded with B12:
  • Function: Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is vital for energy production, red blood cell formation, and maintaining nerve cell health.
  • Potential Benefit in Compounded GLP-1: It can help boost energy metabolism, prevent fatigue, and ensure stable energy levels, particularly during calorie restriction for weight loss. It may also help to decrease nausea. 

Essentially: 

• B6 focuses on managing treatment side effects like nausea and supporting mood.
• B12 focuses on maintaining energy levels and supporting metabolic processes. 

Compounded medications are custom-made by pharmacies when standard FDA-approved drugs are not suitable, often due to specific dosage requirements, allergies, or formulations..

Compound pharmacies undergo inspections by regulatory bodies such as the Texas State Board of Pharmacy, DEA, FDA, and the Verified Pharmacy Program (VPP). This ensures our commitment to maintaining the highest standards.
