Compounded GLPs: A Revolutionary Approach to Weight Loss and Metabolic Health
At Patuxent Integrated Wellness Center, we offer Compounded GLPs as a powerful tool in the fight against obesity and related health issues. Compounded GLPs are medications that have gained widespread attention not only for their effectiveness in managing type 2 diabetes but also for their ability to support significant weight loss in those struggling with obesity.
Compounded GLPs offer a range of benefits that make them a valuable option for those looking to improve their health through weight loss and better metabolic control:
- Significant Weight Loss: Clinical studies have shown that Compounded GLPs can help people lose a substantial amount of weight, often achieving losses of 10–15% of their body weight or more.
- Appetite Control: One of the main challenges in losing weight is dealing with hunger and cravings. Compounded GLPs help reduce these by making you feel full and satisfied with less food.
- Improved Blood Sugar Levels: For those with type 2 diabetes, Compounded GLPs can help lower blood sugar levels, reducing the need for other diabetes medications.
- Cardiovascular Health: There is evidence that Compounded GLPs may reduce the risk of heart disease, especially in individuals with diabetes, by helping to manage weight and improve blood sugar control.
Convenient Dosing: Compounded GLPs are typically administered as a once-weekly injection, making them a convenient and manageable option for long-term use.
Dulaglutide + Pramlintide + SLM+ (Enhanced Formula)
Dulaglutide: A GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate blood sugar, suppress appetite, and promote weight loss.
Pramlintide (optional): An amylin analog that enhances satiety and slows gastric emptying, working synergistically with GLP-1s.
SLM+: A proprietary blend designed to enhance weight loss and metabolic function. The “Enhanced Formula” offers additional metabolic support and appetite regulation.
Liraglutide + Pramlintide + SLM+ (Enhanced Formula)
Liraglutide: A daily GLP-1 injection known for appetite suppression, reduced food intake, and improved glucose control.
Pramlintide (optional): Enhances the appetite-suppressing effects of liraglutide by mimicking natural satiety hormones.
SLM+: Supports the effects of liraglutide with added ingredients for optimal fat metabolism and sustained energy.
Phentermine: A stimulant that suppresses appetite and boosts energy levels; typically used short-term for rapid weight loss.
Topiramate: Originally an anticonvulsant, it has weight loss benefits when used off-label by reducing appetite and cravings.
Phentermine-Topiramate (Combo): Combines the appetite-suppressing effects of phentermine with the satiety-enhancing effects of topiramate for a powerful dual-action approach.
Naltrexone-Bupropion: A combination that targets both the reward system and hunger signals in the brain to reduce emotional eating and cravings.
LDN + Sermorelin:
Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN): Helps regulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, and may assist with weight regulation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Compounded GLPs are medications originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes but have proven highly effective for weight loss. They work by mimicking a hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) that targets areas of the brain responsible for regulating appetite and food intake. By increasing feelings of fullness and reducing hunger, Compounded GLPs help people eat less and lose weight over time.
How it works:
- Appetite suppression: Compounded GLPs help reduce cravings and food intake.
- Slows stomach emptying: It delays gastric emptying, making you feel full longer after eating.
- Improved blood sugar regulation: It helps improve insulin sensitivity and lowers blood sugar levels.
Key Benefits:
- Significant, sustained weight loss
- Better control of appetite and portion sizes
- Improved metabolic function
- Can be used alongside diet and exercise for more effective results
Good candidates for Compounded GLPs are individuals who struggle with weight loss despite diet and exercise and meet certain health criteria. They are generally prescribed for those who have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity) or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related medical condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.
Ideal candidates:
- Individuals with a BMI of 30 or above (obese)
- Individuals with a BMI of 27 or above who have health conditions related to weight
- People who are committed to making long-term lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise
- Those who have not achieved significant weight loss with traditional methods alone
Key Benefits for Candidates:
- Reduces the risk of weight-related conditions like heart disease and diabetes
- Supports long-term weight management and lifestyle improvements
- Enhances results when combined with diet and exercise programs
Compounded GLPs offer a range of health benefits beyond just weight loss. They address several metabolic factors that contribute to better overall health, especially for individuals with obesity or related conditions.
Key Benefits:
- Sustained weight loss: Many patients experience a significant reduction in body weight, with some studies showing an average weight loss of 15-20% over time.
- Improved metabolic health: Compounded GLPs help reduce visceral fat (the harmful fat around organs) and improve blood sugar control, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
- Lowered blood pressure and cholesterol: Weight loss often leads to improvements in cardiovascular markers such as lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
- Reduced appetite and cravings: By influencing appetite hormones, Compounded GLPs help individuals control their hunger and avoid overeating.
- Enhanced quality of life: Many patients report feeling more energetic, having better mobility, and experiencing greater overall well-being.
Most patients begin to notice weight loss within the first few weeks of starting Compounded GLPs, though significant weight loss tends to occur over several months. The treatment is generally long-term, with continued use providing the most sustainable weight loss results. Patients typically see the most dramatic changes in body weight around 3-6 months into treatment, with ongoing results over the course of a year or more.
Timeline of results:
- First few weeks: Initial reduction in appetite and food intake
- 3-6 months: Noticeable weight loss, improved metabolic markers, and enhanced energy levels
- 12 months and beyond: Significant and sustained weight loss with long-term improvements in overall health
Key Benefits:
- Gradual, sustainable weight loss
- Continued improvements in metabolic health and reduced risk of chronic diseases
- Long-term management of body weight when combined with healthy lifestyle choices
Like any medication, Compounded GLPs can cause side effects, though most are mild and manageable. The most common side effects are related to the gastrointestinal system, as Compounded GLPs affect the digestive process. However, these effects typically diminish over time as the body adjusts to the medication.
Common Side Effects:
- Nausea: The most frequent side effect, especially during the initial stages of treatment. It often subsides after a few weeks.
- Diarrhea or constipation: Digestive issues are common, though they tend to be mild and temporary.
- Bloating or gas: Some patients may experience bloating or discomfort as their body adapts.
Managing Side Effects:
- Starting with a lower dose and gradually increasing the dosage helps minimize side effects.
- Eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding fatty or greasy foods can reduce nausea.
- Staying hydrated and including fiber-rich foods in your diet can help with digestive issues.
Key Benefits:
- Most side effects are mild and temporary
- Adjusting the dosage or diet can significantly reduce discomfort
- The health benefits of weight loss often outweigh the mild side effects
