Many people who join our rapid weight Loss programs enjoy the benefits of these medications with few or no side effects. And with NexgenMD360’s approach to weight loss for men and women, side effects are minimized through a gradual increase in dosage. Should they occur, it can include nausea at first or slight gastrointestinal discomfort. Staying hydrated and eating small, frequent meals can help manage these issues should you experience them.

For the vast majority of people, both medications will be safe and effective. However, as with many medications, those with a personal or family history of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndrome Type 2 (MEN2) should not take either medication. Others who are not recommended for these medications include those with severe gastroparesis or other severe gastrointestinal diseases, individuals with a history of pancreatitis, severe kidney disease, or impaired kidney function, patients with a history of diabetic retinopathy, or anyone who has had a severe allergic reaction to GLP-1, GLP-1/GIP, or any of their components. These medications are also not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and safety and efficacy in individuals under 18 have not been established. In such cases, incorporating a nutritionist plan for weight loss can be a valuable alternative to support your health and weight loss goals.

Similar to GLP-1, improvements in blood sugar levels can be observed within the first week of beginning GLP-1/GIP. Appetite reduction usually begins within the first few weeks of treatment and many individuals may start to notice weight loss within the first month. Significant weight loss generally occurs over 3 to 6 months, with continued improvements seen over a year or more with consistent use and healthy lifestyle changes. Combining the medication with a healthy diet and regular physical activity can enhance results and lead to more sustainable weight loss and blood sugar control. While some effects can be seen relatively quickly, achieving significant weight loss and optimal blood sugar control often requires patience and consistent use of the medication over several months. Of course, results can vary based on individual metabolic rates, adherence to the medication regimen, and overall health status.

Monthly follow-ups with our physician will be done to monitor progress, adjust dosages if necessary, and manage any side effects. In addition, you’ll receive a personalized nutritionist plan for weight loss, tailored to your individual health conditions and treatment plans to help you achieve the best results.

Reaching a goal weight with the help of GLP-1 or GLP-1/GIP medications as part of our rapid weight loss programs is a significant achievement. Maintaining that weight requires a comprehensive plan, including medical supervision, lifestyle changes, and possibly continued medication use at a maintenance dose. Emphasizing healthy eating, regular physical activity, and behavioral support is crucial for maintaining weight loss. If you decide to discontinue the medication, NexgenMD360’s physician will guide you through a gradual process to minimize the risk of weight regain. This approach supports weight loss for men and women in achieving lasting results.
