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 Gaston 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 Gaston, South Carolina

Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) targets one receptor and averages ~15% weight loss; tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) targets two receptors and reaches up to ~22.5%. Tirzepatide is generally more effective but costs more. A Gaston provider helps you choose.

Brand-name shots run about $1,000–$1,400/month without insurance in Gaston. Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide via telehealth starts around $199/month all-inclusive. With South Carolina insurance coverage, copays can be as low as $25–$50.

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 Gaston provider monitors your progress and adjusts your dose.

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 Gaston vary with diet, activity and starting weight.

No. Gaston telehealth providers offer cash-pay compounded options with a free online consultation, and HSA/FSA cards are accepted. Insurance is applied when available to further reduce your cost.

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.
