Understanding GLP‑1 Weight Loss Medications (Educational Overview)
Understanding GLP‑1 Medications (Educational Overview)
Note: Brand names are mentioned for educational context only. We prescribe compounded medications tailored to your needs.
Many patients are confused by the different names. Here is the simple medical breakdown:
-
Semaglutide is the active ingredient found in medications prescribed for Type 2 Diabetes and Weight Management. It works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone to control appetite.
-
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient found in newer medications. It is a 'Dual Agonist' that mimics two hormones (GLP-1 and GIP) to target both appetite and blood sugar regulation.
At Botox Oahu, Dr. Schaefer prescribes Compounded Semaglutide and Compounded Tirzepatide from licensed US pharmacies to ensure you receive the active medical ingredients tailored to your specific dosage needs. The compounded addition of Vitamins B12 or B6 can help counter act some of the side effects like nausea or fatigue.
GLP1s have become widely discussed for their role in supporting weight management. These medications belong to the GLP‑1 or dual GLP‑1/GIP agonist class and work by helping regulate appetite, improving satiety, and supporting healthier metabolic patterns.
Semaglutide vs. Tirzepatide (Educational Summary)
Clinical studies show that semaglutide supports meaningful weight reduction through appetite control and metabolic improvements. Tirzepatide, which activates both GLP‑1 and GIP pathways, has demonstrated even greater average % total body weight loss in many studies due to its dual‑agonist mechanism. Individual results vary.

WHAT ARE MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS INJECTIONS?
Weight loss medications are prescription treatments that reduce appetite and food cravings. Over the last few years, non-addictive GLP-1 medications have revolutionized weight loss. Used properly under doctor supervision, they have manageable side effects.
Because these medications reduce hunger, they naturally lower your daily calorie intake. Over time, this leads to sustainable weight loss of up to 22% of your body weight.
ℹ️FAQ
❓How Quickly Do They Work?
Most patients lose an average of 1 to 2 pounds per week. Results are best when combined with healthy food choices and mild exercise. We have had tremendous results, with the vast majority of patients achieving their weight loss goals—some losing over 100 lbs.
❓How Long Will I Need to Take It?
You stay on the injections until you reach your goal weight. For example, if you need to lose 50 pounds, a typical course might be 25–40 weeks. Afterward, Dr. Schaefer can help you taper down or use a maintenance dose.
❓What are the side Effects
Nausea, stomach discomfort, vomiting, or fatigue are possible side effects, usually occurring only when first starting or going up on the dose. Most patients tolerate the medication very well, and if necessary the dose can be adjusted to minimize side effects. Dr. Schaefer monitors you closely to mitigate any issues.
