A medication that works with your body's fullness signals
Semaglutide belongs to a group of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists. It acts like a hormone your gut releases after a meal. It tells your brain you're satisfied, slows how fast your stomach empties, and helps keep blood sugar steady.
For many patients, the biggest change is mental. The constant "food noise" quiets down, smaller portions feel like enough, and late-night snacking loses its pull.
Wegovy® is the FDA-approved brand of semaglutide for chronic weight management. Your provider will go over your health history, goals and budget, then recommend the option that fits you best.

Frequently asked questions
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Results vary. In clinical studies of semaglutide 2.4 mg, people lost about 15% of their body weight on average over roughly 16 months when the medication was combined with lifestyle changes. Your provider will set realistic goals with you.
What side effects are common?
Nausea, fullness, constipation or loose stools are the most common, especially when a dose goes up. Eating smaller meals, eating slowly and drinking plenty of water helps. Most people find these effects ease within a few weeks.
Do I need to see you in person?
No. Many patients do their visits by telehealth in Maryland, Florida or New York. Others like coming into our Pikesville or Palm Coast office.
What happens when I stop?
Appetite usually returns once the medication stops. That's why we focus on habits, protein intake and a gradual plan for maintenance or tapering.
