How Semaglutide works for weight loss

💊 Compounded Semaglutide contains the same active ingredient as Ozempic and Wegovy, formulated with vitamins and peptides for results. It mimics GLP-1 — a natural hormone that signals fullness to your brain, slows gastric emptying, and reduces overall calorie intake. Self-pay program — not available through insurance. Call for current pricing: (408) 687-4806.

Semaglutide weight loss — frequently asked questions

How do I get started with Semaglutide at Instant Urgent Care?

Getting started is simple. Book an appointment online by selecting any of our 3 locations above, or walk in during clinic hours. During your first visit, our licensed provider will review your health history, discuss your goals, and determine if Semaglutide is right for you.

Is the Semaglutide program covered by insurance?

No — our Compounded Semaglutide program is a self-pay program and is not available through insurance. Call us at (408) 791-1210 for current pricing. Payment accepted by all major credit cards, debit, and cash.

What are the side effects of Semaglutide?

The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation — particularly in the first few weeks. We start at a low dose (0.25mg/week) and titrate slowly to minimize these effects. Most patients tolerate the medication well after the initial adjustment period.

How much weight can I lose with Semaglutide?

Clinical trials (STEP trials) show an average of 15% body weight loss over 68 weeks. Individual results vary based on starting weight, adherence to the program, and lifestyle factors including diet and exercise.

How is Semaglutide administered?

Semaglutide is a once-weekly subcutaneous (under the skin) injection. Our providers will teach you self-injection technique at your first appointment. The injection is small and most patients find it easy to self-administer.

Is Compounded Semaglutide safe?

Compounded Semaglutide contains the same active ingredient as clinically studied GLP-1 medications, formulated with vitamins and peptides. It is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. Our provider will review your complete health history before prescribing to ensure it is appropriate for you.

How is Semaglutide different from Tirzepatide?

Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) acts on GLP-1 receptors only. Tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) acts on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors — a dual mechanism that produces greater average weight loss (~20-22% vs ~15%). Both are excellent options; our providers help you choose based on your goals and health history.

How long do I need to take Semaglutide?

Weight management is a long-term commitment. Many patients see major results in 3–6 months and continue for 12+ months. If you stop, some weight may return. Our team supports you with ongoing check-ins and adjustments throughout your program.

How does Tirzepatide work compared to Semaglutide?

Semaglutide activates only GLP-1 receptors. Tirzepatide activates both GLP-1 and GIP receptors — a dual mechanism. GIP activation appears to enhance appetite suppression beyond GLP-1 alone, which explains the greater average weight loss seen in trials.
