Who qualifies for GLP-1

GLP-1 medications are prescribed based on specific medical criteria, primarily for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight conditions with at least one weight-related comorbidity. When you complete the online questionnaire, the doctor looks for:

• A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
• A BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, or established cardiovascular disease).
• No contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2.
• No history of pancreatitis.
• No severe gastrointestinal disease.

The doctor reviews your full medical history to ensure GLP-1 is a safe and appropriate treatment for your specific situation.

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

GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide 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 stomach emptying. This leads to a reduction in calorie intake and, over time, weight loss.

It's important to understand that GLP-1 medications are most effective when combined with lifestyle changes, including a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. They are not a magic bullet; consistent effort on your part is crucial for sustained results. Realistic timelines for significant weight loss typically span several months of consistent use and adherence to a healthy lifestyle.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, GLP-1s can cause side effects. The most common ones are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. These are usually mild to moderate and tend to decrease over time as your body adjusts to the medication. Other less common side effects can include headache, fatigue, and dizziness.

You should contact a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of pancreatitis, or an allergic reaction. The doctor reviewing your case will discuss potential side effects and what to look out for during your treatment.
