Medical Weight Loss Medications—What You Need to Know
Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and the Science Behind Sustainable Results
You’ve probably heard the buzz around semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound). These injectable medications are transforming the weight loss conversation—but they’re not a magic fix. At Revique, we use them as a tool, not the solution, in a structured medical weight loss program.
What Are These Medications?
Semaglutide and tirzepatide belong to a class of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which help:
Reduce appetite and cravings
Slow gastric emptying (you feel fuller longer)
Regulate blood sugar and insulin levels
Decrease inflammation and metabolic stress
Tirzepatide also activates GIP, another hormone that enhances fat loss and insulin control.
Are they safe?
In most patients, yes—with medical supervision. Common side effects include nausea, fatigue, and constipation, which we manage with dosing schedules, lifestyle support, and supplements.
These medications are ideal for those with:
Insulin resistance or prediabetes
PCOS
Slow metabolism or weight plateaus
History of unsuccessful diet attempts
The Revique Approach: Medication + Metabolic Rehab

Is This the Right Path for You?
These tools can make a dramatic difference—but only when paired with a foundation of hormone balance, gut health, and muscle preservation.
