GLP-1 is an FDA-approved anti-obesity medication — a synthetic version of a naturally occurring hormone (glucagon-like peptide-1) produced in the digestive tract. It works alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to support meaningful, lasting weight loss. Clinical studies have shown patients losing an average of nearly 15% of their initial body weight.
GLP-1 works by slowing digestion, decreasing appetite, and helping you feel fuller faster and longer after a small meal. It comes in an injectable form administered once weekly — just under the skin in areas like the abdomen, upper arm, or thigh. The recommended program duration is 2–3 months, though treatment length is tailored to your individual goals.
Some of the most commonly reported side effects include nausea, constipation, indigestion, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, heartburn, bloating, gas, headache, fatigue, and mild jitteriness. Nausea is most common when starting treatment and typically resolves as your body adjusts. Administering GLP-1 before bed and staying well hydrated can help minimize this.
At Biolite Wellness, we begin with a thorough consultation where your provider will review your medical history and gather baseline measurements including weight and blood pressure. This evaluation helps determine whether GLP-1 therapy is appropriate for you.
You'll receive detailed guidance on how to administer the medication, along with personalized recommendations for diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes to maximize your results. We schedule regular follow-ups to monitor your progress and adjust your dosage as needed throughout your journey.
We also offer Methionine Inositol Choline (MIC) injections — popularly known as fat-burning shots — combined with vitamin B12. These injections help burn fatty tissue, enhance metabolism, and boost overall energy. They can be used alongside GLP-1 therapy and administered up to twice a week.
Who is a candidate for GLP-1?
Anyone who has struggled to lose weight through diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes alone may be a candidate for GLP-1 therapy. A consultation with your Biolite provider will confirm your suitability.
Who should not use GLP-1?
GLP-1 is not appropriate for individuals with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, liver or kidney impairments, hypersensitivity to GLP-1, or those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant.
What is the GLP-1 treatment regimen?
Treatment begins with a low dose injected once weekly, gradually increased to the maintenance dose. Following dietary and exercise guidelines is essential. Your specific regimen will be discussed during your consultation.
What diet and exercise do you recommend?
We recommend small portions of high-protein, low-carbohydrate meals with increased fiber and fluid intake, and 50–60 minutes of physical exercise daily.
How long is the treatment?
We recommend committing to at least three months, though length depends on your individual weight loss goals.
How will I feel while on GLP-1?
Most patients feel full after smaller portions. Some experience mild nausea initially, which typically resolves as the body adapts. Your Biolite provider will monitor your progress throughout treatment.

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are injectable medications that mimic hormones in the body which help regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. They work by reducing hunger and promoting satiety, leading to weight loss.
These injections are typically prescribed for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or those with a BMI of 27 or higher and obesity-related conditions, like type 2 diabetes.
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. Most side effects are mild and subside with time.
Weight loss can typically be seen within a few weeks to a couple of months, with the full effects occurring over the course of several months.
