Frequently asked questions

Are weight loss medications the best way to lose weight?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

Weight loss medications may be part of a weight loss program and work best when combined with lifestyle changes. Weight loss medications may jump start your weight loss when used in conjunction with a nutrition treatment plan, behavioral modifications, and exercise.

How long will it take me to lose weight with weight loss medication?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

Most weight loss occurs within the first 6 months of starting the weight loss medication. The time it takes for you to see results can vary significantly depending on your health, exercise, and nutrition.

How long should I take weight loss medication?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

This depends on the medication you are taking. If you do not lose at least 5% of your starting body weight after 12 weeks on the full dose of your medication, your provider will work with you to discuss modifying your diet or treatment. Once you have lost enough weight to improve your health and haven’t had serious side effects, your provider will advise if you should continue or stop taking the medication.

Do you offer compounded GLP-1 medications?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

At Hello Alpha, we now offer compounded semaglutide for weight loss. This is an affordable alternative to GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, which are currently in shortage. This means you can now continue or restart your weight loss journey without the financial burden or worries of losing access to your medication.
