GLP-1 receptor agonists represent a revolution in medical weight loss. OakMD offers provider-reviewed programs featuring semaglutide and tirzepatide for eligible adults.
What Is GLP-1 Weight Loss?
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists are a class of injectable medications that mimic the GLP-1 hormone naturally produced in the gut. They slow gastric emptying, reduce appetite, improve blood sugar regulation, and promote significant weight loss in eligible adults.
What It May Help With
GLP-1 medications are used for chronic weight management in adults who meet eligibility criteria, which may include:
- BMI ≥30 (obesity)
- BMI ≥27 with a weight-related condition (e.g., hypertension, type 2 diabetes)
- History of failed lifestyle interventions
- Metabolic syndrome or insulin resistance
Who May Be a Candidate
Candidates for GLP-1 medications must meet clinical eligibility criteria. Your OakMD provider will review your BMI, health history, and goals to determine whether a GLP-1 program is appropriate.
