Can You Take Semaglutide Every Other Week For Weight Loss?

What can you do when all the mainstream diet and exercise plans you’ve tried in the past haven’t helped you lose weight? Do you feel stuck with your body the way it is–as though no matter what changes you make, it doesn’t lead to any positive impacts on your weight?

You’re not alone in your struggle to lose weight; many other people are going through the same thing. And there’s a legitimate reason you’re having a harder time getting control of your weight; your body may need a boost known as semaglutide to get hunger cues and blood sugar levels under control and help you finally reach your weight loss goals.

An Intro To GLP-1 Medications

Medications like semaglutide are called GLP-1s. More than regulating your blood sugar, these medicines also work with your body’s natural hormones to help you feel full when eating–and for a longer period after meals. They may limit hunger cues so you won’t feel like you need to eat or snack as often. If you can feel satisfied with a smaller amount of food, you’ll consume fewer calories, which may be one of the best ways to lose weight and keep it off.

What Are The Weight Loss Plan Options At Injectco?

Injectco offers two semaglutide weight loss plans. The first includes injectable semaglutide, while the second consists of an oral form of the medication for those who might not love the idea of needles.

Our injectable semaglutide plan starts when you schedule your consultation with one of our providers. You can choose to have this appointment in person or virtually. Your provider assesses your current health condition while reviewing your medical history. This helps them determine whether you will be a good candidate for semaglutide. If you qualify, we will ship the medication directly to your door.

Once you receive your supplies, contact your provider to set up a second appointment. Here, you will learn how to safely and effectively inject semaglutide.

The Difference Between Weight Loss And Weight Management

During the initial weeks of your semaglutide plan, you’ll need to stick to your injection schedule–one dose every week. Missing a week will mean slowing the weight loss process. You should keep injecting the medication once a week while you are still attempting to reach your goal weight.

Eventually, you’ll likely transition from a weight loss dose to a weight management plan. At this point, your provider might suggest continuing the weekly injection. You may discuss the possibility of reducing your maintenance dose to one injection every two weeks; however, if you start to gain back the weight you’ve lost, you may need to resume a once-weekly injection of semaglutide for weight management.
