FDA-Approved Injectable Weight Loss Treatment:
Compounded Semaglutide, is a game-changer for weight loss. This injectable prescription mimics GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), a hormone that regulates appetite and blood sugar. It works by blocking Ghrelin—the “hunger hormone”—so you feel fuller, longer. Originally designed for type 2 diabetes, Semaglutide also helps control blood sugar by stimulating insulin release. The best part? Just one injection per week—no daily pills or multiple doses to keep track of! If you're looking to commit to the science-backed way to manage weight and hunger, Semaglutide might be the solution.
FDA-Approved Injectable Weight Loss Treatment:
Compounded Tirzepatide, represents a breakthrough in medical weight loss. This once-weekly injectable mimics not one, but two hormones—GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)—which together regulate appetite, insulin production, and blood sugar levels more effectively than previous treatments.
Tirzepatide not only helps you feel full longer by slowing gastric emptying and reducing hunger hormones like ghrelin, but it also enhances insulin sensitivity and supports steady blood sugar control. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, it has demonstrated significant weight loss benefits, leading to its FDA approval specifically for chronic weight management.
If you're ready to take a science-driven, highly effective approach to weight loss, Tirzepatide may be the solution you've been waiting for.
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide drops, while gaining popularity in the weight loss market, are not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in their drop formulations. Although both medications are FDA-approved for specific injectable treatments related to diabetes and, in some cases, chronic weight management, their use as compounded oral drops has not undergone the rigorous testing and regulatory review required for FDA approval.
While compounded oral versions of semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved, there is ongoing research into their potential. Novo Nordisk has submitted a marketing application for an oral version of semaglutide, which, if approved, would become the first oral GLP-1 therapy for chronic weight management in the U.S. The FDA has accepted this application, and a decision is expected later in 2025 . Similarly, Eli Lilly is developing an oral GLP-1 medication, orforglipron, which has shown promising results in clinical trials . These developments indicate a shift towards more convenient oral formulations, but until FDA approval is granted, compounded versions of these drugs remain unapproved and carry potential risks.
