How Much Does Semaglutide Cost in Houston TX?

Semaglutide injections use what is called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) which works as an agonist on specific receptors in the body, meaning is pushes other hormones off these receptors or prevents other hormones from attaching to these receptors. These receptors are associated with the brain and the pancreas, and these receptors are used in the body to create glucose, so these agonists stop the ability of this creation and lower the levels of glucose in the body. Because of this semaglutide was originally used for the management of diabetes, and those who used semaglutide found that during the use of semaglutide, they also began to lose weight. Through studies, semaglutide has been found to be a viable option for those who classify as overweight or obese, to be able to lose weight. This is because semaglutide, when not used in diabetics, still works on the same receptors but because of this they reduce the cravings for food and also create a sense of feeling full sooner, which also makes it great for patients who naturally do not produce leptin which is the hormone produce to create the sensation of feeling full.

The cost of semaglutide can vary based on many different factors, this is because the dosage amounts will change the price of semaglutide, and some clinics may offer discounts on the prices when a patient pre-pays for a certain amount of months you pay in advance. The cost of a monthly dose of semaglutide can vary from $500 to over $1000 per month, but this can also be reduced if you meet certain criteria with your insurance provider meaning you can pay less monthly for your medications. At Clariti Aesthetic and Wellness, we make sure that our patients are given all options for the cost of semaglutide so that it can be an affordable option for our patients who are looking to use semaglutide injections for weight loss.
 
If you are looking to use insurance to cover some of the costs, or all of the costs, of a semaglutide prescription it is important to reach out to your insurance provider and review your insurance policy before your appointment so you will have an idea regarding the costs you may incur. This can also be beneficial as this way during your consultation appointment to determine your eligibility, you can also speak with the physician or medical professional doing your consultation if they accept the insurance you are looking to use.

Besides the aforementioned benefits of reducing appetite and reducing cravings leading to the loss of weight, patients will also find that the use of semaglutide will improve their quality of life. This is because the use of semaglutide can aid changes in diet and lifestyle, which can improve a patient’s mood and outlook on life as well. Other benefits include lower blood sugar levels, reduced risk of heart attacks (myocardial infarctions), and reduced risks of strokes.

Since semaglutide mimics hormones produced naturally in the body, it is a very safe option for patients looking to lose weight and will aid in the changes of a patient’s lifestyle long-term. Patients will find that not only does it help them to change their diet, but because of the increased insulin present in the body, they will also find that it lowers their blood sugar levels which improves patients’ overall health.
