Semaglutide is a GLP-1 medication that can support more consistent and effective weight management.
It helps minimize appetite, increase feelings of fullness, and reduce cravings, which can make nutrition changes easier to maintain. Our team at La Bella MD uses semaglutide in Myrtle Beach as part of a comprehensive medical weight loss program, not as a quick fix.
Most patients take semaglutide through an injection once per week. Your provider will explain your recommended schedule, dose, and follow-up plan so you know what to expect before you begin.
Your dose may change gradually across your treatment plan based on your response, side effects, and medical guidance.
Possibly. Some patients experience:
Our team discusses hydration, protein intake, and other ways to manage symptoms, and we can adjust your dose if discomfort persists.
You may be a candidate if you meet the BMI criteria or have related concerns that make losing weight more difficult. Semaglutide may not fit certain medical histories, specific medication conflicts, or pregnant patients.
Before you begin semaglutide in Myrtle Beach with our team, we perform a medical assessment to make sure the treatment is safe for you.
Your timeline depends on your health, progress, response to medication, and long-term goals. As we track changes, we help you understand what maintenance looks like and how decreasing and getting off the injections works.
