What is Ozempic and Why is Everyone Talking About it?

Ozempic is the brand name belonging to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. It’s been studied for its ability to promote weight loss, helping individuals with excess weight issues, high blood pressure, and more.

How Ozempic Works?

Ozempic works by mimicking GLP-1, a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels. This hormone stimulates insulin secretion, reduces glucagon production, and slows gastric emptying. This leads to feeling full, reduces food intake and cravings, and leads to healthy but dramatic weight loss.

What is Ozempic Approved for

Ozempic is approved to treat diabetes and lower A1C and cardiovascular risk. It has not been approved solely for weight loss, but studies have shown that users regularly lose body weight, and it can be prescribed off-label.

Wegovy is the same drug product but also contains GLP-1, with slightly different doses than Ozempic. It was approved by the FDA for weight loss in 2021.

Potential Side Effects from Ozempic

Reported side effects of Ozempic include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and constipation. Serious allergic reactions are also possible, but exceedingly rare. Typical side effects are generally mild and tend to improve over time, while serious side effects are less common.
You will discuss any pre-existing conditions and side effects with Dr. Michael Rankin during your initial weight loss consultation.

Know Your Medical History Before Starting Ozempic

At Lifestyle Med Spa, we prioritize your safety and well-being by thoroughly reviewing your medical history before starting Ozempic treatments. More than simply measuring your body mass index (BMI), we screen for conditions like thyroid cancer, heart disease, low blood sugar, and kidney disease. This allows us to understand how your unique health profile will interact with Ozempic, so we can create a tailored plan for sustainable weight management and optimal results.

How Did Lifestyle Med Spa Come to Provide Ozempic Treatments

Dr. Kim Barrus, our chief of operations, took Ozempic and lost 22 pounds in four months and felt more energetic, confident, and healthier. As he dived into the research, he learned about all the positive changes. He opened the medical spa to provide these benefits to his clients, among other medical spa treatments.
