What to expect: dosing & side effects

GLP-1 medications are given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, starting at a low dose that your provider increases gradually over several weeks to limit side effects. Most Ithaca patients self-inject at home after a short demonstration.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, decreased appetite and mild injection-site reactions — usually mild and fading over the first few weeks. Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid concerns; GLP-1s should not be used by people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Your provider reviews your full history before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions

GLP-1 treatment in Ithaca, Michigan

Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are made by 503A/503B pharmacies regulated by state boards and the FDA, with purity independently tested. They contain the same active ingredient as the brand-name shots. Your Ithaca provider monitors your progress and adjusts your dose.

Clinical trials show tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) produces greater average weight loss (up to ~22.5% of body weight) than semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy, ~15–17%). Tirzepatide activates two receptors (GLP-1 and GIP) versus one for semaglutide. Both are highly effective; your Ithaca provider helps choose based on your history and goals.

Most Ithaca patients complete the online assessment and get provider approval within 24 hours. Medication ships in 2–3 days, so you can start your first dose within about 3–4 days. The whole process is online with licensed Michigan providers.

Both are semaglutide from Novo Nordisk. Ozempic is FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes (often used off-label for weight loss), while Wegovy is approved specifically for chronic weight management at a higher dose. Same molecule, different indication and dosing.

Both are tirzepatide from Eli Lilly. Mounjaro is approved for type 2 diabetes, Zepbound for chronic weight management. The molecule and weekly dosing are identical — only the indication differs.

Some weight regain is common after stopping, with patients often regaining a portion within a year. Providers usually recommend gradual tapering and building sustainable habits while on the medication. Your Ithaca provider can design a long-term or maintenance plan.
