Who qualifies for GLP-1

GLP-1 medications are prescribed for specific medical conditions, primarily for weight management in adults with obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m²) or overweight (BMI ≥27 kg/m²) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia). The doctor evaluates your medical history, current health status, and BMI to determine if GLP-1 is an appropriate and safe treatment for you. Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will be carefully assessed.

What GLP-1 actually does (and doesn't do)

GLP-1 receptor agonists work by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and food intake. They help you feel fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and slow down stomach emptying. This leads to reduced calorie intake and, over time, weight loss. It's important to understand that GLP-1 medications are most effective when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and increased physical activity. They are not a magic bullet; realistic timelines for significant weight loss typically span several months, and individual results vary. They do not replace the need for lifestyle changes.

Side effects and when to stop

Common side effects of GLP-1 medications include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when treatment is initiated or the dose is increased. These usually subside over time. Serious side effects are rare but can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, or kidney issues. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or signs of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor will provide detailed information on side effects and when to discontinue treatment, ensuring your safety throughout the process.
