Our Approach To Anti-Obesity Medications
Anti-Obesity Medications may complement a lifestyle approach for those who qualify. Eligibility includes a BMI over 27 with comorbidities like high blood pressure, diabetes, or hypertension, or a BMI over 30 with or without comorbidities.
We Do Not Sell, We Prescribe
Unlike many clinics that buy and mark up obesity medications, we prescribe through insurance if obesity treatment is covered. We offer self pay options as well. Diabetic patients may qualify under that diagnosis.


Length of Treatment
Most anti-obesity medications are intended for long-term use, not quick fixes. We recommend lifestyle changes alongside medication and offer monthly counseling billed to insurance during the initial weight loss phase.
Semaglutide
Semaglutide, a breakthrough for weight loss, can be highly effective when used correctly, as it helps curb appetite and slows digestion, leading to reduced cravings and satisfaction with smaller portions. Semaglutide patients started on a low dose of Semaglutide, gradually increasing.


Tirzapetide
Tirzepatide, a newer option, combines Semaglutide’s GLP-1 agonist effect with an additional peptide, GIP, which further reduces blood sugar and improves weight management, often with fewer side effects than semaglutide. Should also be started at low dose and gradually increased.
Phentermine
Phentermine is a medication for chronic weight management. This medicine works by suppressing appetite.


Phentermine Topamax
Phentermine and topiramate are combined to suppress appetite. Phentermine acts as a direct appetite suppressant, while topiramate may also contribute to feelings of fullness and potentially alter the taste of certain foods.
Bupropion Naltrexone
Naltrexone and bupropion are combined to help reduce appetite and cravings, and to increase energy expenditure in order to promote weight loss.
