Semaglutide is a GLP-1 medicine that lowers appetite and supports weight loss when it is paired with changes to eating and activity. At InjectCo MedSpa Woodlands, a semaglutide plan starts with a medical screening, and a prescription is written only if you qualify.
Semaglutide is one option inside our medical weight loss program in The Woodlands, where a physician oversees each plan and our nurses follow up with you every two weeks.
InjectCo's semaglutide plan pairs a prescription GLP-1 medicine with nurse follow-up and practical eating guidance. It is not a crash diet. Semaglutide works on appetite signals, which can make smaller portions and less snacking feel easier.
A semaglutide plan in The Woodlands includes:
Results vary from person to person. In the STEP 1 clinical trial, adults taking brand-name semaglutide 2.4 mg with lifestyle support lost about 15% of their body weight on average over 68 weeks. That is a trial average, not a promise, and compounded semaglutide was not the product studied.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, constipation and vomiting, most often while the dose is being adjusted. Your nurse asks about these at every check-in.
Medication alone is rarely the whole plan. Your semaglutide plan combines the prescription, guidance on eating and activity, and regular follow-up, so changes are based on how you are actually responding.
Semaglutide acts like GLP-1, a hormone your gut releases after you eat. It signals fullness to the brain and slows how quickly the stomach empties, so many people feel satisfied on smaller portions and think about food less between meals. You can read more about brand-name semaglutide products in our guide.
Compounded semaglutide is not FDA approved. If it is part of your plan, your provider will explain what that means before you start.
Your provider talks through eating habits that fit your routine, including any food allergies or sensitivities. The goal is a pattern you can keep after the medication phase, not a short-term diet.
Every two weeks, your nurse checks in on appetite, side effects and progress. Dose changes are based on how you are responding, not on a fixed monthly schedule, and they are made under physician oversight.
Between visits, our semaglutide guide has practical eating tips.
When you book with InjectCo, a semaglutide plan in The Woodlands includes:
Each monthly supply covers four weekly doses and the supplies to self-inject. Rotate injection sites between the stomach, thighs and upper arms, as your nurse will show you.
Semaglutide can help people who have struggled to lose weight with diet and exercise alone by quieting hunger and cravings. It is not right for everyone. The label warns against use if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2, and your screening also covers pregnancy plans, other medications and conditions such as pancreatitis.
InjectCo's semaglutide plan in The Woodlands is $425 per month, with medication, supplies and nurse check-ins included. It is self-pay, and HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
InjectCo is a nurse-led medical aesthetics and weight loss clinic. Our weight loss providers work under physician oversight, and you can find our Shenandoah clinic on Google Maps.
Semaglutide lowers appetite and helps you feel full sooner, which makes it easier to eat less. It works best alongside changes to eating and activity.
Many people notice less appetite within the first few weeks. Weight change is gradual because the dose starts low and increases over time, and results vary by person, dose and habits.
It can support lasting weight loss, but studies show weight often returns after stopping if habits do not change. Your plan includes planning for what happens when you reach your goal.
Not necessarily. Brand-name semaglutide for weight loss is labeled for adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure. Your provider reviews your full history to decide whether you may qualify.
People with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2, or a serious allergy to semaglutide, should not take it. Your provider also reviews other medications, pregnancy plans and conditions such as pancreatitis before deciding.
It varies widely, because the dose starts low and increases gradually. Your nurse tracks your progress every two weeks instead of holding you to a fixed number.
