Appetite Suppressants
For many patients who struggle with weight loss, prescription medications can be a valuable tool to support healthier habits. At Inspiration Health & Wellness, our office offers a range of options, including appetite suppressants and the latest GLP-1 receptor agonists:
• Appetite Suppressants: Medications such as Phentermine, Diethylpropion (Tenuate), and Contrave (naltrexone HCI/bupropion HCI) are available for appropriate patients. These help reduce hunger and cravings, making it easier to stick to healthy eating plans.
• GLP-1s (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists): Newer, FDA-approved medications like semaglutide (Ozempic®, Wegovy®) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) mimic natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar. GLP-1s not only reduce hunger, but can also improve blood sugar control and support significant, sustained weight loss when combined with lifestyle changes.
How These Medications Work
These medications do not directly cause weight loss. Instead, they support your efforts by decreasing appetite, increasing fullness, or regulating metabolism—helping you reduce caloric intake and make healthier choices. Weight loss results when your caloric expenditure exceeds your intake.
