Let’s explore each type of treatment and find out what’s best for you.
Semaglutide
-
Semaglutide is an injectable medication originally developed for managing blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It has since been FDA-approved for weight management due to its effectiveness in reducing appetite and aiding in weight loss. Semaglutide works by mimicking a hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in regulating appetite and food intake.
-
Semaglutide works by mimicking the action of a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). It binds to GLP-1 receptors, which increases insulin secretion, reduces the release of glucagon, and slows gastric emptying. This combination helps lower blood sugar levels and promotes a feeling of fullness, leading to reduced appetite and potential weight loss.
-
Semaglutide is ideal for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or greater or for adults with a BMI of 27 who also have at least one weight-related complication such as hypertension, insulin resistance, high cholesterol, or heart disease. However, it’s not suitable for everyone. People with the following conditions should avoid Semaglutide:
Pregnant or breastfeeding women
Individuals with a history of pancreatitis
Those with Type-1 diabetes
People allergic to Semaglutide or any of its ingredients
Individuals with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2
Those with a history of thyroid cancer
Always consult a medical professional before starting Semaglutide to ensure it’s the right fit for you.
-
Despite semaglutide being a good weight loss tool for many people, it's not for everyone. Certain people shouldn't take it:
Pregnant or breastfeeding women
People with a history of pancreatitis
People with Type-1 diabetes
People with an allergy to semaglutide (or any of its ingredients)
People with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2
Always consult a medical professional before taking semaglutide. Be open and honest about any pre-existing conditions and allergies, so we can make sure it's a good fit before beginning treatment.
-
Not everyone experiences side effects, but if they do occur, they are often minor and tend to subside over time or with dosage adjustments.
Minor Side Effects (often subside as your body adjusts):
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Constipation
Stomach pain or discomfort
Fatigue
Headache
Mild dizziness
If any severe side effects occur, it’s important to seek medical care immediately. Always consult your healthcare provider about any concerns or persistent symptoms.
-
Semaglutide is a single receptor agonist, GLP-1.
Tirzepatide is a dual receptor agonist, GIP and GLP-1.
Dual mechanism may offer more significant weight loss and better blood sugar regulation for some patients.

tirzepatide + Carnitine
-
Tirzepatide with carnitine is a newer injectable treatment used for blood sugar control in diabetes and is also being explored as a highly effective weight loss option. Tirzepatide is a dual-action drug that targets two hormones, GLP-1 and GIP, both of which play a role in appetite regulation and insulin sensitivity. This dual mechanism, combined with carnitine’s potential to support fat metabolism and energy production, is believed to enhance the overall effectiveness in weight reduction.

This dual mechanism, combined with carnitine’s potential to support fat metabolism and energy production, is believed to enhance the overall effectiveness in weight reduction.
-
Carnitine can help boost your body's ability to burn fat into energy. It enhances the transport of fatty acids into the cells, where they are converted into energy, which may support weight loss and improve physical performance. Additionally, it may boost overall energy levels, especially if your body has low carnitine levels.
-
Both medications are used for weight loss, but Tirzepatide may offer more significant weight loss results due to its dual-action mechanism. If other methods have not been effective, Tirzepatide may be the better option.
Both medications share similar side effects, such as nausea and gastrointestinal discomfort, but Tirzepatide has a higher likelihood of causing nausea, especially in the early stages. If side effects are a concern, Semaglutide may be a more tolerable option to start.

Tirzepatide is not for:
Pregnant or breastfeeding women
People with a history of pancreatitis
People with Type-1 diabetes
