Common Questions About GLP-1 Therapy

Everything you need to know before starting your weight loss journey with Healthcare One.

GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists mimic a natural hormone in your body. They work by slowing digestion, reducing appetite, and helping regulate blood sugar โ€” leading to significant, sustained weight loss when combined with healthy lifestyle changes.
Most adults with a BMI of 30 or higher (or 27+ with a weight-related condition like Type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure) may qualify. Your Healthcare One physician will review your full health history during your consultation to determine the best treatment plan for you.
Clinical trials show patients lose an average of 15โ€“22% of their body weight over 12โ€“18 months. Results vary based on the medication, dosage, adherence, and lifestyle factors. Most patients begin noticing results within the first 4โ€“8 weeks of treatment.
The most common side effects are mild and gastrointestinal โ€” nausea, constipation, or mild stomach discomfort โ€” especially when starting or increasing your dose. These typically subside within a few weeks. Your provider will guide you through a gradual dose escalation to minimize discomfort.
Most patients receive their prescription within 24โ€“48 hours of their consultation, with medication delivered to their door within 5โ€“7 business days. We work with licensed compounding pharmacies and major retail pharmacies to ensure fast, reliable access to your medication.
Coverage varies by insurance plan. Many plans cover GLP-1 medications when prescribed for Type 2 diabetes. Coverage for weight management indications is expanding but varies widely. Healthcare One handles prior authorization on your behalf and offers transparent self-pay pricing for patients without coverage.
