503Bs test every batch of medication for endotoxin,
sterility and potency.503Bs can offer extended beyond-use dates
because of the rigorous testing performed under CGMP.
Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, or GLP-1 RAs. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone, released in the gut in response to eating.
One role of GLP-1 is to prompt the body to produce more insulin, which reduces blood sugar (glucose). For that reason, health care providers have used semaglutide for more than 15 years to treat Type 2 diabetes.
But GLP-1 in higher amounts also interacts with the parts of the brain that suppress your appetite and signal you to feel full. When used in
conjunction with diet and exercise, it can cause significant weight loss — and a reduced risk of cancer, diabetes and heart disease — in people who are obese or overweight.
At Gupta Plastic Surgery, you will undergo multiple consultations with Dr. Gupta at crucial junctures to identify the safest and most effective medication dosage for you.
Throughout these consultations, Dr. Gupta will closely monitor your response to ensure that the medication is effectively addressing your needs.
Many side effects can be easily managed and only in rare instances does treatment need to be stopped.
During your consultation with Dr. Gupta, you will thoroughly review all medical information and discuss your eligibility for a personalized semaglutide treatment plan.
