Discuss semaglutide, tirzepatide, and a medically supervised approach to weight management.
GLP-1–based medications have changed the conversation around medical weight management. Depending on the individual and medical appropriateness, treatment options may include medications such as semaglutide or tirzepatide.
These medications work through pathways involved in appetite, fullness, blood sugar regulation and digestion. They aren’t intended to replace healthy habits. Instead, when medically appropriate, they can be one part of a comprehensive weight-management plan that includes nutrition, lifestyle changes and ongoing medical supervision.At Core, GLP-1 treatment isn’t just about getting a prescription. Patients are medically evaluated to determine whether treatment is appropriate, and progress can be monitored throughout the program.
Common questions we can address include:
-
- Am I a candidate for GLP-1 treatment?
- What’s the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?
- What side effects should I know about?
- How long might treatment last?
- What happens when I reach my goal weight?
- How do nutrition and exercise fit into treatment?
- How will my progress be monitored?
