What to expect: dosing & side effects

GLP-1 medications are given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, starting at a low dose that your provider increases gradually over several weeks to limit side effects. Most Meraux patients self-inject at home after a short demonstration.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, decreased appetite and mild injection-site reactions — usually mild and fading over the first few weeks. Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid concerns; GLP-1s should not be used by people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Your provider reviews your full history before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions

GLP-1 treatment in Meraux, Louisiana

For weight loss specifically, Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide) are the FDA-approved pens. In trials, tirzepatide produced greater average weight loss (up to ~22.5%) than semaglutide (~15%). Your Meraux provider recommends the best pen based on your history, goals and insurance.

GLP-1 medications are given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection with a small, thin needle — either a prefilled pen or a vial and syringe. They slow gastric emptying, reduce appetite and signal fullness to the brain. Most Meraux patients self-inject at home after a quick demonstration; all supplies are included.

Compounded GLP-1s are prepared by 503A/503B pharmacies regulated by state boards and the FDA, with purity independently tested. They contain the same active ingredient as the brand-name drugs. Your Meraux provider monitors your progress and adjusts your protocol as needed.

Coverage varies widely by plan in Louisiana. Many commercial plans cover Mounjaro for diabetes and Wegovy/Zepbound for weight management with prior authorization. Medicare Part D may cover diabetes indications but generally not weight-loss use. A Meraux provider can verify benefits and file prior authorization.

Both are tirzepatide from Eli Lilly. Mounjaro is approved for type 2 diabetes, Zepbound for chronic weight management. The molecule and weekly dosing are identical — only the indication differs.

Brand-name GLP-1s come as prefilled pens (pre-measured, very easy to use). Compounded medication often ships as a vial with syringes, which costs less and lets the provider fine-tune the dose. Both deliver the same weekly subcutaneous injection; your Meraux provider will recommend what fits you.
