Choose which GLP-1 works best for you

The difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide

Semaglutide

Commonly known as Ozempic and Wegovy

Semaglutide works solely as a GLP-1 receptor agonist in the brain, reducing hunger and food cravings.

  • Reduces hunger and cravings
  • Available in oral and injectable doses
  • Available in premium-compound and name-brand prescriptions
thrive-oral tirzepatide

Tirzepatide

Commonly known as Mounjaro and Zepbound

Tirzepatide combines the actions of GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists, providing a greater reduction in appetite than semaglutide alone. By mimicking the two hormones, it helps to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce hunger, and increase your metabolic rate.

  • Reduces hunger and cravings
  • Lower risk of hypoglycemia
  • Available in premium-compound and name-brand prescriptions

Compounded medications are patient-specific medications created in a state Board of Pharmacy or FDA-licensed compounding facility per a prescription from a licensed healthcare professional. Compounded drugs are required to exclusively use ingredients from FDA-licensed facilities, and test sterile compounds for potency, sterility, and purity. While compounded drugs are legal, they do not undergo pre-market approval from the FDA as they are not made in large batches for the public, compounds are made based on specific orders from a medical professional. Because of that the dose, route of administration, and efficacy may differ from commercially available, brand-name, drugs.

FAQ

Your Questions, Answered

What are GLP-1 medications?

GLP-1 medications are a class of drugs specifically aimed at aiding weight management and are used in the treatment of obesity and type-2 diabetes.

They are named after the natural hormone they mimic, Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1), which your body produces and is secreted by intestinal enteroendocrine L-cells and certain neurons in the brainstem upon food intake.

How do GLP-1 medications help with weight management?

GLP-1 medications work by mimicking the natural GLP-1 hormone, which is released by your intestines after you eat. This hormone plays a critical role in signaling to your brain that you are full, helping to control your appetite. By leveraging this mechanism, GLP-1 medications make you feel fuller sooner and longer after eating, which can lead to reduced calorie intake and subsequent weight loss. GLP-1s are also valuable for improving blood sugar levels, offering a dual benefit for individuals with obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Are there any side effects associated with GLP-1 medications?

Yes, while GLP-1 medications can be highly beneficial, they may come with potential side effects. Common side effects include gastrointestinal issues such as nausea and vomiting, a possible increased risk of pancreatitis, low blood sugar levels especially when combined with other medications, and reactions at the injection site. It is also important to note that these medications are not recommended for individuals with certain medical histories related to thyroid cancer.

How do I know if GLP-1s are the right choice for my weight loss journey?

Deciding if GLP-1 medications are suitable for you involves an evaluation with a medical provider. They will consider your individual health status, weight loss goals, and any potential risks to determine if this treatment aligns with your needs and health.

How does the ordering process work?

Fill out our quick questionnaire to find out if you qualify. A medical provider will review your information and determine if the treatment you are seeking is right for you. Within a few hours of your submission, you should expect a follow-up from your assigned provider via the contact information you provided during your intake to discuss the next steps. In some cases, a live video consultation may be required before prescription approval. Once approved, your prescription will be mailed directly to you. 

How does disqualification work during the intake process?

This decision is made based on clinical guidelines and your health assessment by our licensed medical professionals. However, disqualification in the intake process usually occurs due to certain health-related criteria, such as Body Mass Index (BMI) and the presence of certain comorbidities. In rare cases, unwillingness to commit to reducing caloric intake or to engage in physical activity may also lead to disqualification. These measures are in place to ensure that our services are suitable and safe for your health needs.

Will I get a refund if I am disqualified?

If you do not qualify for a medical weight loss GLP-1 treatment, your payment will be immediately refunded. If this does not occur, please contact our support team at support@wellsync.com.
