What are GLP-1 medications?

GLP-1 medications are prescription drugs that act like a hormone your body already makes. That hormone helps control appetite and blood sugar, which is why these medications are used for weight management.

  • Semaglutide is a GLP-1 medication.
  • Tirzepatide acts on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors.

Both are taken as a once-weekly injection under the skin. Your provider decides which medication and dose, if any, fits your health history and goals.

How a program works.

  • Provider consult. A licensed provider reviews your health history, current medications and goals.
  • Personalized plan. If a GLP-1 medication is right for you, your provider creates a treatment plan and prescription.
  • Injection education. Your HydraGlow nurse shows you how to give your weekly injection.
  • Shipped to your door. Medication is shipped directly to you.
  • Ongoing follow-ups. Regular check-ins with your nurse and an easy refill process as your dose changes.

Is it right for me?

GLP-1 medications are not right for everyone. Your provider will go over your full health history before prescribing, including pregnancy plans and any history of thyroid, pancreatic or gallbladder conditions.

The most common side effects are stomach-related, such as nausea, especially when starting or increasing a dose. Your provider will explain the risks and what to watch for.

Results vary from person to person. Medication works best alongside changes to eating and activity, and your provider will help set realistic expectations.
