Weight Loss With Oral Semaglutide

By now, you’re probably acquainted with semaglutide (marketed under the brand names Ozempic and Wegovy). You’ve likely encountered the advertisements, and perhaps you even know someone who has experienced weight loss success with it.

Semaglutide, a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist, plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels and controlling hunger by interacting with natural hormones. Since receiving FDA approval in 2017, it has transformed the lives of millions, aiding in weight loss and overall health improvement.

However, traditional semaglutide administration involves injections. But imagine if you could harness the benefits of this groundbreaking medication in pill form. That’s where oral semaglutide comes in.

How Does Oral Semaglutide Work?

Oral semaglutide, a non-invasive medication, effectively regulates appetite and hunger, making weight loss more manageable. It also offers some protection for the cardiovascular system.

By lowering blood sugar levels through increased insulin production and enhancing glucose metabolism, it naturally suppresses appetite. This results in efficient food processing, energy storage in muscles, and accelerated fat burning, leading to weight loss.

What Is Oral Semaglutide?

Oral semaglutide, a prescription medication for weight loss and type 2 diabetes, effectively curbs food cravings, reduces hunger pangs, and induces a sense of fullness, facilitating weight loss. By stimulating insulin production and enhancing the metabolism of fats and sugars, it encourages weight loss through natural bodily processes.

While most semaglutide variants come in injectable forms, oral semaglutide is delivered in easy-to-take pill form.. Marketed under the name Rybelsus, it’s also available at a significantly lower cost as a compounded medication.

Compounded medications are tailor-made by healthcare professionals for individual patients. These are formulated in compounding pharmacies licensed by the FDA or state Board of Pharmacy, ensuring all ingredients meet rigorous standards of purity, sterility, and potency.

Treatment With Oral Semaglutide

When you opt for oral semaglutide, you can conveniently take your medication in the form of a palatable tablet that’s easy to swallow and travel-friendly, eliminating the need for needles, even during travel.

Our practitioner will determine the appropriate dosage of oral semaglutide based on your goals, body weight, and BMI. Since you’ll be taking oral semaglutide under medical supervision, dosage adjustments can be easily made as required. Typically, you can expect to take your one tablet of oral semaglutide three days a week.

Comparing Oral Semaglutide to Injections

Numerous clinical studies attest to the efficacy of oral semaglutide, with participants experiencing an average weight loss of approximately 15%. Results indicate that oral semaglutide is as effective as injectable variants, if not more so.

Studies also indicate that oral semaglutide is better tolerated by a larger percentage of individuals compared to injectable forms, with milder side effects reported.

What to Expect While Taking Oral Semaglutide

The dosage of oral semaglutide prescribed by your physician may vary. It’s recommended to take it at the same time each day, preferably in the morning, with a 30-minute gap before eating.

Consistency is key to experiencing the full benefits of semaglutide. If you miss several doses, consult your doctor, who may need to adjust your dosage.

The change is easy to make if you’ve been taking injectable semaglutide and want to switch to oral semaglutide. Just check in with our provider for guidance.

While some individuals may notice results quickly, others may require time for the medication to accumulate in their bodies before observing changes in metabolism. However, many report reduced appetite and cravings within days of starting treatment. Discuss your individual experiences with our practitioner.
