Semaglutide Weight Loss Shots | Santa Fe

Same Medication as Ozempic & Wegovy

If you are looking for the new weight loss drugs Ozempic or Wegovy – popular with A-listers and everyday people for rapid weight loss – Live Well Functional Medicine in Santa Fe has you covered! Ozempic and Wegovy are both brand names of a generic medication called “semaglutide”. Ozempic was originally developed to treat Type 2 Diabetes when its amazing weight loss results were discovered. Soon Wegovy followed and it was FDA approved for weight loss in patients with certain conditions. The active ingredient in both Ozempic and Wegovy is semaglutide – which is now available by prescription only at Live Well Functional Medicine in Santa Fe.

Where your body deposits fat cells is largely hereditary. That’s why diet and exercise alone are typically not enough to get rid of unwanted fat in stubborn areas. Women tend to develop fat deposits in the abdomen (“belly”), hips and outer thighs (“saddle bags”). And all of these areas that are very difficult to slim down with exercise! In men, fat often accumulates in the chest and around the abdomen and love handles – sometimes referred to as a “beer belly” or “spare tire.”

The F.D.A. has approved Wegovy brand semaglutide for weight loss in adult women and men with obesity or excess weight, who have at least one “weight-related condition,” such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes or high cholesterol. Today revolutionary semaglutide is recognized as one of the safest and most effective weight loss medications available – when prescribed and monitored by a qualified physician like Dr. Lynore Martinez at Live Well Functional Medicine in Santa Fe, NM.
