Weekly weight loss injections have shown remarkable results in aiding weight loss when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
Weight Loss Support Clinic
New UK licensing regulations mean that I am now able to prescribe weekly self-administered weight loss injections to suitable patients.
These are designed to support weight loss efforts, enhance overall well-being and improve health outcomes if they are found to be suitable after a full medical assessment.
There are various weight loss injection options that are all prescription medications used for weight management in adults with obesity or adults who are overweight with at least one qualifying health-related condition for example – Type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis, abnormal lipids, sleep apnoea, hypertension, cardiovascular disease.
The prescription is a self-administered weekly injectable Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. GLP-1 receptor agonists work by mimicking the effects of a natural hormone called GLP-1, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and appetite. By activating GLP-1 receptors, these injections can contribute to weight loss by increasing feelings of fullness and so reduces food intake.
Until 2023, Management of overweight and obesity in adults in the UK included:
- lifestyle measures alone- diets and exercise advice.
- the use of a prescribed tablet that reduces fat absorption
- referral to specialist weight management services which might include a prescription for an injectable medicine.
- bariatric surgery.
Clinical trial evidence shows the benefits of weight loss injections
- People lose more weight with injectables alongside supervised weight management support than with support alone
- In people with non-diabetic hyperglycaemia, injectables plus lifestyle measures help normalise blood glucose more frequently than lifestyle measures alone
- Weight loss injections may decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease
