Semaglutide is a medication revolutionizing the approach to weight management and type 2 diabetes treatment. While it’s growing in popularity due to it’s weight loss applications, it’s important to know it’s prescribed use. Custom Prescriptions of Lancaster offers compounded semaglutide solutions for those seeking help managing their Type 2 Diabetes or prescribed weight loss efforts!

Semaglutide belongs to a drug class called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. It mimics a natural hormone, GLP-1, produced in the gut. GLP-1 plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar and appetite.

Semaglutide boasts two primary uses:

• Chronic Weight Management: Under the brand name Wegovy, Semaglutide is approved for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related health condition. It works by increasing satiety (feeling full) and reducing appetite.

Compounded Semaglutide offers the same active ingredient that standard Semaglutide brands, such as Ozempic and Wegovy. The difference is that it is compounded in our sterile compounding lab and customized to your needs. It also requires a prescription from your provider. Compounded Semaglutide is not restricted to only being an injectable. At Custom Prescriptions of Lancaster, we can also offer a sublingual “under the tongue” version of Semaglutide, which can be a less invasive and effective method if needles aren’t your preference.
