Frequently Asked Questions

What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus or to help lose weight in adults with an elevated BMI.

Semaglutide increases insulin production, lowers blood sugar levels and slows the rate of gastric emptying. It also appears to enhance pancreatic cell growth, which helps insulin production.

Semaglutide prevents blood sugar spikes and allows our bodies to process the foods we eat, decreasing appetite and overall calorie consumption throughout the day.

Individuals have demonstrated rapid changes in body weight with little lifestyle modification. However, when combined with a healthy diet and exercise, the fat melts right off!

What are the side effects of Semaglutide?

Individuals typically report little to no side effects. The most common side effects are often temporary and may include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, constipation, dizziness, or tiredness.

Nausea or stomach discomfort typically decreases as your body adapts to semaglutide over the course of several weeks.

If any side effects become worse or do not subside with continued use, contact your medical provider promptly.

How does Semaglutide Work?

GLP-1 agonists, like Semaglutide, target inflammatory pathways in the body that contribute to tissue damage and oxidative stress.

Neurotransmitters are also targeted, resulting in a decrease in appetite and improved satiation (fullness). Digestion of food in the GI tract is slowed, altering how quickly the stomach is emptied into the intestines.

Further, GLP-1 agonists have shown to increase insulin secretion and decrease glucagon levels in the body, improving overall blood sugar regulation.

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a medication used primarily to help with weight loss and the management of type 2 diabetes. It is a synthetic, once-weekly injectable drug that works by mimicking two natural hormones in the body: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). Both of these hormones play important roles in regulating blood sugar, appetite, and insulin secretion.

Tirzepatide offers multiple benefits for people with obesity, overweight conditions, and type 2 diabetes by combining weight loss, blood sugar control, and cardiovascular protection in one medication. Patients report greater weight loss and fewer side effects as compared to Semaglutide. It provides a dual-action mechanism, and its once-weekly injection format makes it an appealing and convenient option for many patients.

What are the side effects of Tirzepatide?

Individuals on tirzepatide typically report fewer side effects than semaglutide. The most common are often temporary and may include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, constipation, dizziness, or tiredness.

Nausea or stomach discomfort typically decreases as your body adapts to the medication over the course of several weeks.

If any side effects become worse or do not subside with continued use, contact your medical provider promptly.

How does Tirzepatide Work?

Tirzepatide mimicks two natural hormones in the body: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). Both of these hormones play important roles in regulating blood sugar, appetite, and insulin secretion.

Appetite Suppression:
Tirzepatide slows gastric emptying, which helps you feel fuller for longer, reducing overall food intake.

Improved Insulin Sensitivity: It boosts insulin production when blood sugar is high, helping to lower blood sugar levels after meals.Increased Energy Expenditure: Some studies suggest it may help increase energy expenditure, further promoting weight loss.

For $399 a month, our membership program includes the following:

Awesome facility!! They do everything!! Very reputable!! And accommodating!! You won't be sorry!!

Robert T.

I've been low on energy, libido and had erratic sleep.  Testosterone shots from Dr Joe Schum and the entire medical team at iThriveMD have been a great blessing to improving my wellness.  I work in a medical setting and impressed by their diligence, welcome and friendly environment.

I found ithriveMD through instagram and saw that they offered injections. I was a little nervous to go through with it as it is an out of pocket expense, but i am SO GLAD i did it! I have seen a major speed up of the healing process in my injury which had been so slow up until i got the treatment done.

Finally found a naturopathic dr in San Diego that was able to help me get the blood work my physician refused. I was able to develop a natural way to help my thyroid and gastrointestinal issues. I highly recommend Ithrivemd and Dr. Fry.

First of all I came in with expectations of achieving a weight goal and IThrive didn't disappoint. Not only did the entire experience starting with the receptionist Val at the desk to Dr.Fry who not only helped me understand everything I was wanting to do, she was very knowledgeable and friendly. I have stayed with them for over 5 months now and have not had one negative experience.

I went in for a B12 shot last week and it was my first time so I was a little nervous but they made me feel really comfortable and it was super quick and painless. I felt really good after and noticed it kept me in a good mood with good energy. It was only $25 and I plan to go back for my second shot tomorrow. The staff was always really friendly and helpful.
