Absolutely! The FDA has approved this compound for both diabetic treatment and obesity management. If you are eligible for semaglutide injections, we will get you set up with the proper prescription.
After injecting your body with semaglutide, the boost in insulin levels put out by your pancreas will stabilize your blood sugar. This helps you manage your weight in the long term.
Understanding Semaglutide
This weekly injection helps your pancreas produce enough insulin to combat high blood sugar levels. Keeping these levels balanced is the key to eliminating diabetes symptoms, lowering risk for heart complications, and aiding weight loss. If you are ready to see the difference in your quality of life, visit SoHo Health NY for semaglutide in SoHo. Just a few shots can make your weight loss journey easier than ever before.

You may experience some nausea or vomiting as well as other stomach pain. Additionally, trials have reported cases of diarrhea and loss of appetite. While you can manage these at home, let us know if your side effects become severe or your body has an allergic reaction to semaglutide.
We understand that needles are not everyone’s favorite, and these injections are no different. Luckily, semaglutide can be injected with a tiny needle in either the thigh, arm, or stomach, whichever is most comfortable for you.

Preparing for Semaglutide
- When you meet with your provider for the first time, remember to mention any health conditions and medications you are currently taking.
- Stay away from substances such as alcohol and nicotine that can elevate your risk of blood sugar complications.
- Prior to each injection, it’s important to drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration during your treatment.
Caring for Your Body After Semaglutide
- Maintain your diet and exercise plan so that your injections can be as effective as possible in helping you lose weight.
- Do not take more semaglutide than prescribed. This increases your risk for severe medical concerns such as heart palpitations or pancreatitis.
- Some discomfort is normal after receiving your injections. You can manage this minor pain using a cold compress.
Selecting an Injection
When it comes to choosing a brand of diabetes or weight loss medication, figuring out the difference between every available option can seem impossible. The most popular brands all include the same dosage and target the same systems through your pancreas. The key difference is that some use semaglutide while others contain tirzepatide.
While both compounds help with weight loss, tirzepatide options also include a mimicry of the GIP hormone. In clinical trials, this has proven to make this treatment more effective at weight loss alone in comparison to semaglutide or other medications. However, other brands are equally as effective in terms of diabetic treatment.
During your consultation, we will discuss your past health history, current medications, wellness goals, and budget in order to narrow down which option is best for you. No matter which medication you choose, we will work to ensure that your treatment is as effective as possible. If at any time you want to switch your medication brand, we can discuss your options. This may involve taking a period of rest from your prescription so your body’s systems can reset.
