Expected results for GoSlim medications

Updated this week

The time it takes to see results with GoSlim products varies depending on the specific medication, individual health conditions, adherence to the recommended diet and exercise regimen, and personal weight loss goals. Here’s a general overview of what you can expect for each GoSlim product:

1. Ozempic® (Semaglutide Injection)

  • Expected Results Timeline: Many people start to see noticeable results within 4 to 12 weeks of starting Ozempic®. However, some may experience weight loss earlier, depending on how their body responds to the medication and other lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.

  • What to Expect: Ozempic® works by reducing appetite and slowing gastric emptying, which helps decrease calorie intake and promotes weight loss over time. The effectiveness can vary, with some individuals losing a significant amount of weight within a few months.

2. Saxenda® (Liraglutide Injection)

  • Expected Results Timeline: Results with Saxenda® can often be observed within the first 4 weeks of treatment. Most individuals are expected to lose at least 4% of their starting weight after 16 weeks of use when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

  • What to Expect: Saxenda® works by suppressing appetite and increasing feelings of fullness, which helps reduce calorie consumption. Weight loss progress may vary among individuals based on their adherence to the medication and lifestyle modifications.

3. Orlistat

  • Expected Results Timeline: Orlistat typically starts to show results within 2 weeks of consistent use, especially when taken with a low-fat, reduced-calorie diet. Significant weight loss results can usually be seen within 6 months.

  • What to Expect: By blocking the absorption of dietary fats, Orlistat helps reduce calorie intake. The amount of weight loss can vary based on dietary habits and the percentage of calories from fat in the diet.

4. RYBELSUS® (Oral Semaglutide)

  • Expected Results Timeline: Weight loss results with RYBELSUS® may be noticed within the first 8 to 12 weeks. The full effect can usually be assessed after 6 months of consistent use, along with dietary and lifestyle changes.

  • What to Expect: RYBELSUS® reduces appetite and increases satiety, leading to lower calorie intake and gradual weight loss over time. As with other GLP-1 receptor agonists, the response can vary depending on the individual and adherence to prescribed guidelines.

Factors Affecting Results

  • Adherence to Medication: Consistent use of the medication as prescribed by your healthcare provider is crucial for achieving the best results.

  • Diet and Exercise: Combining GoSlim products with a healthy, reduced-calorie diet and regular physical activity significantly enhances weight loss outcomes.

  • Individual Variability: Factors such as age, metabolism, baseline weight, and overall health can influence how quickly you see results.
