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 Alamo Heights 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 Alamo Heights, Texas

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 Alamo Heights provider recommends the best pen based on your history, goals and insurance.

GLP-1 pens are injected under the skin once a week, rotating between the abdomen, thigh and upper arm. The needle is short (4–5 mm) and the injection is nearly painless. Store the pen refrigerated and follow the dose schedule your Alamo Heights provider sets, which starts low and increases gradually.

Brand-name pens are pre-measured and easy to use but cost the most. Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, often shipped as a vial with syringes, is the lowest cash-pay option in Alamo Heights (from around $199/month) and lets your provider fine-tune the dose.

GLP-1 pricing in Alamo Heights depends on the option. Brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound run about $950–$1,400/month without insurance, though manufacturer savings cards can cut that sharply for eligible Texas patients. Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide via telehealth is the most affordable cash-pay route, with all-inclusive plans from around $199/month.

Most Alamo Heights patients complete the online assessment and get provider approval within 24 hours. Medication ships in 2–3 days, so you can start your first dose within about 3–4 days. The whole process is online with licensed Texas providers.

Standard criteria: BMI 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia or sleep apnea. Alamo Heights providers follow FDA-guided criteria; a free assessment confirms eligibility in minutes.
