How the Medication Works

Simple, Effective and Proven Results

Everyone has a number on the scale that our body normally hovers around which is known as your body's "set point." After you reach your weight loss target with our therapy plan, you can establish and maintain a new set point with a lower value.

Arizona Health & Wellness Clinic offers Semaglutide and Tirzepatide to help men and women achieve simple and effective weight loss with proven results.

​

Semaglutide is a revolutionary development in the weight loss industry and works by mimicking the naturally occurring hormone (GLP-1) that regulates appetite and blood sugar levels.  Taking Semaglutide reduces cravings, suppresses appetite, and makes you feel satisfied after eating smaller amounts of food. Considered safe for long-term use, this medication helps patients to shed as much as 15-20% of their body weight making it an excellent solution for jumpstarting your weight loss journey. Semaglutide is especially useful for obese patients struggling with weight-related medical conditions.

​

Tirzepatide is the newer of the FDA-approved weight loss medications. As a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and a glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, Tirzepatide acts by targeting multiple pathways involved in appetite regulation, insulin sensitivity, and energy metabolism. By stimulating insulin secretion, suppressing glucagon release, and promoting feelings of fullness, Tirzepatide helps to reduce calorie intake and enhance energy expenditure, thereby facilitating significant weight loss.

​Tirzepatide is also a simple weekly injection that can be conveniently self-administered at home.
