Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) are prescription GLP-1 medications that reduce appetite and support weight loss. At Health Solutions we offer the Glow Up Slim Down Injection Program, a physician-directed, clinic-formulated weight loss program built around similar appetite-control and metabolism goals, with in-person monitoring included.

Prescription weight loss solutions are provided only after a medical evaluation by our physician to determine eligibility.

How Semaglutide Works

Sometimes referred to as the "Skinny Shot", Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural gut hormone that reduces appetite and slows digestion, which is why it is associated with significant weight loss for many patients.

This is general information about the medication, not a description of a treatment offered at Health Solutions.

How Tirzepatide Works

Tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist. It acts on two hormone pathways involved in appetite and blood sugar regulation, which is part of why some studies show somewhat greater average weight loss compared to single-pathway medications like semaglutide.
