GoSlim by GoRocky offers a range of weight loss medications that are scientifically backed and designed to support effective weight management. These medications are divided into two main categories: GLP-1 receptor agonists and oral weight loss tablets. Here’s an overview of each type:
1. GLP-1 Receptor Agonists
GLP-1 receptor agonists are injectable medications that mimic the action of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) hormone in the body. This hormone plays a crucial role in regulating appetite and blood sugar levels. By activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain, these medications help reduce hunger, increase feelings of fullness, and slow gastric emptying, which collectively contribute to weight loss. The GLP-1 receptor agonists offered by GoSlim include:
Ozempic® (Semaglutide): Originally developed for managing type 2 diabetes, Ozempic® has been shown to aid in weight loss by suppressing appetite and promoting satiety. It is injected once a week and is effective for both weight loss and blood sugar control.
Saxenda® (Liraglutide): Saxenda® is specifically approved for weight management. It is injected daily and helps reduce body weight by decreasing appetite and increasing the feeling of fullness. It also provides benefits for blood sugar regulation, making it suitable for individuals with type 2 diabetes.
2. Oral Weight Loss Tablets
Oral weight loss tablets are medications taken by mouth that help reduce calorie intake by preventing the absorption of dietary fats or by influencing appetite and metabolism. The oral weight loss tablets offered by GoSlim include:
Orlistat: Orlistat works by inhibiting the enzyme lipase, which is responsible for breaking down fats in the digestive system. By blocking this enzyme, Orlistat prevents the absorption of about 30% of the fat consumed in a meal, which is then excreted from the body. This helps reduce overall calorie intake and promotes weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet.
RYBELSUS® (Oral Semaglutide): RYBELSUS® is the first GLP-1 receptor agonist available in an oral form. It works similarly to injectable GLP-1 receptor agonists by reducing appetite and increasing satiety, which helps decrease calorie consumption. RYBELSUS® is taken once daily and provides an alternative for individuals who prefer not to use injectable medications.
