Eligibility for Semaglutide injections is determined by a healthcare provider based on several factors and a medical evaluation. Some general considerations regarding Semaglutide eligibility include: • Body mass index (BMI) – Semaglutide is prescribed to individuals with a BMI of 27 or higher who have at least one weight related condition. This includes type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis. For individuals with a BMI of 30 or higher, Semaglutide can be prescribed without the presence of weight-related conditions. • Weight loss goals – Semaglutide treatment is recommended for people who are committed to making lifestyle changes and have struggled to achieve weight loss through diet and exercise alone. It’s key to set realistic weight loss goals and have the willingness to make long-term behavioral changes. • Medical history – A healthcare provider will assess your medical history, including existing health conditions and current medications. Semaglutide may not be suitable for those with certain medical conditions, such as a history of pancreatitis, thyroid cancer, or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). • Discussion with a healthcare provider – It’s essential to have an open and honest discussion with your healthcare provider about your weight loss goals, medical history, and any concerns you have.We will evaluate your situation and determine if Semaglutide is the right choice for you.   Our medical weight loss program takes place under the care of a healthcare provider in our Marlton, NJ office.
