Weight Loss Options

This program is designed for adults 18 and older who are seeking weight‑loss support and meet basic medical safety criteria. Eligible clients include individuals with a BMI of 25 or higher, including those with well‑controlled type 2 diabetes. Participants must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and should have no history of pancreatitis, diabetic ketoacidosis, medullary thyroid carcinoma, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome, or hypersensitivity to semaglutide. It is also intended for those without end‑stage renal disease or diabetic retinopathy.

Semaglutide is an effective option for helping manage high blood sugar in individuals with type 2 diabetes. As a member of the antihyperglycemic class known as GLP‑1 receptor agonists, it supports glucose control by increasing insulin release, reducing glucagon levels, slowing gastric emptying, and helping curb appetite. Brown H&W Clinic only offers Semaglutide for weight loss treatment and does not actively treat Type-2 Diabetes.

This program is designed for adults 18 and older who want structured, medically supervised weight‑loss support using tirzepatide. Candidates should have a BMI of 25 or higher and may include individuals with well‑managed type 2 diabetes. To ensure safety, participants must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and should have no history of pancreatitis, diabetic ketoacidosis, medullary thyroid carcinoma, or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome. Tirzepatide is also not recommended for individuals with severe renal impairment, diabetic retinopathy, or known allergies to the medication or its components.

Tirzepatide can help regulate high blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes by acting as a dual GIP/GLP‑1 receptor agonist. It works through several pathways, including increasing insulin secretion, reducing glucagon production, slowing gastric emptying, and decreasing appetite. At Brown H&W Clinic, tirzepatide is used exclusively for weight‑management purposes and is not provided as a treatment for type 2 diabetes.
