Semaglutide Q&A

I have been taking Ozempic for diabetes and have only lost 5 pounds but I have Ozempic face. Im not taking it for weight loss. If I have a facelift, will resuming Ozempic after a facelift cause Ozempic face again or should I seek out a different diabetes medication. Help my doctors don't know, I'm concerned.

I've heard that compound semaglutide isn't FDA approved whereas ozempic is. What is the difference and should I be concerned that one may have more side effects? I'm overweight by about 25 lbs.

During my meeting with a surgeon for lipo he mentioned they offer a generic semaglutide since I am insulin resistant and struggle with fat loss despite healthy eating and exercise. I lost 25 lbs 2 years ago and plateau ever since. I asked if I should lose weight with semaglutide before or after surgery and he said it wouldn't matter.I'd like more opinions.Would u suggest a client lose with meds before or after lipo? I am 25 lbs overweight & drs tried to prescribe it but can't bc I'm not diabetic

Hi! Where is the best site to inject zepbound after lipo of stomach?

Do any insurance plans cover Ozempic, and what will I have to do to get it approved by my insurance company? What about Medicare or Medicaid?

Do I need to be a certain weight or BMI to qualify for Ozempic for weight loss?

What should I know when looking for a GLP-1 agonist drug?

I have read about Ozempic face and how you lose facial fat on Ozempic and it can leave you looking gaunt and thin. Is this true? Should I be worried about this side effect?

Is Ozempic for people with diabetes who want to lose weight? Can it be used off-label just for weight loss?

I've read in the media about people who have gained the weight back when they stop Ozempic. Is this a real concern, or just a matter of managing weight in other ways?
