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 Uniondale 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 Uniondale, New York

Not much. The shots use a short, thin needle (4–5 mm) injected just under the skin, and most patients describe it as a quick pinch. Your Uniondale provider or clinic will show you how to self-inject, rotating between the abdomen, thigh and upper arm.

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 Uniondale provider helps choose based on your history and goals.

In clinical trials, semaglutide patients lost about 15% of body weight and tirzepatide patients up to 22.5% over roughly 68–72 weeks on the highest dose. For a 200-pound person that is roughly 30–45 pounds. Results in Uniondale vary with diet, activity and starting weight.

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.

Yes — licensed telehealth providers handle everything online in Uniondale, from assessment to prescription. A New York-licensed provider reviews your history, runs a virtual consult and ships medication to your address. Local clinics on this page are the in-person alternative.
