Struggling with Weight Loss? You’re Not Alone
Losing weight can be challenging, and for many people, diet and exercise alone aren’t enough to achieve lasting results. If you’ve tried multiple weight loss methods without success, you may benefit from a clinically approved weight loss injection that helps regulate appetite and support healthier eating habits.
At Village Pharmacy Charlton, we provide weight loss injections for eligible patients who need additional support in their journey to a healthier lifestyle.
Find out how these injections work, who they’re for, and whether they’re the right option for you.
What Are Weight Loss Injections?
Weight loss injections contain glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, a type of medication that mimics natural hormones in your body to help regulate hunger and appetite. These medications have been clinically tested and are approved for use in medically supervised weight loss programmes.
The main benefits include:
- Reduced appetite and cravings
- Improved portion control
- Better blood sugar regulation
- More sustainable weight loss results
When combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise, weight loss injections can be a safe and effective tool to help manage your weight.
Who Can Use Weight Loss Injections?
Weight loss injections are typically recommended for people who:
- Have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (classified as obese).
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher with weight-related health conditions, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or sleep apnoea.
- Have tried traditional weight loss methods, such as diet and exercise, without success.
Who Should Avoid Weight Loss Injections?
This treatment may not be suitable for people who:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Have a history of thyroid disease or pancreatitis.
- Are taking certain medications that may interact with GLP-1 receptor agonists.
Before starting any treatment, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional. Our team at Village Pharmacy Charlton can assess your eligibility and discuss your weight loss goals.
How Do Weight Loss Injections Work?
Weight loss injections help regulate hunger and digestion by slowing the emptying of the stomach and increasing feelings of fullness. This reduces appetite and helps with portion control, making it easier to stick to a calorie-controlled diet.
How Often Do You Need an Injection?
Most weight loss injections are self-administered once a week using a simple, pre-filled injection pen. Our pharmacists will guide you through the process to ensure safe and proper use.
How Long Does It Take to See Results?
Results vary from person to person, but many patients begin to notice changes within a few weeks. Clinical studies show that weight loss injections can help patients lose up to 10-15% of their body weight when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Are Weight Loss Injections Safe?
Weight loss injections are clinically tested and approved, but like all medications, they may cause mild side effects, including:
- Nausea
- Digestive discomfort
- Mild fatigue
These effects are usually temporary and improve as your body adjusts to the medication.
At Village Pharmacy Charlton, we offer professional consultations to ensure you receive safe and appropriate treatment.
