WEIGHT LOSS
Goals Within Reach
Are you having trouble losing weight or maintaining a healthy weight? Semaglutide may assist in promoting weight loss.
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. They target the part of the brain that regulates appetite by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone.
How does it work?
GLP-1 medications work to:
-
Suppress Appetite
-
Manage Blood Sugar
-
Control Blood Sugar Spikes
-
Reduce Cravings
When used in conjunction with diet and exercise, it may help patients lose weight.
Because traditional options are now scarce, Summit Rx Pharmacy is now providing compounded semaglutide injections and oral drops.

What are my options?
Injection
We have recently partnered with a 503B pharmacy to provide a compounded injectable semaglutide option to our patients. A 503B pharmacy is a pharmacy that is registered with the FDA as a compounding outsourcing facility; they operate on a large scale to make the compounds available to other pharmacies. Though the compound is not FDA approved, the facility that produces it is an FDA approved drug manufacturer and is inspected regularly. Each batch we receive comes with a Certificate of Analysis showing the chemical composition.
Sublingual Drops
At Summit Rx Pharmacy our pharmacist compounds semaglutide as liquid drops that are administered sublingually (under the tongue). Our team takes an available FDA-approved form of semaglutide and changes the dosage form or strength to be customized to the final product for the patient.
