💉 Semaglutide & Tirzepatide: What to Expect Before & After Your First Injection

At Renovo, we are proud to offer advanced weight management solutions with Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, two groundbreaking injectable medications designed to help support weight loss and improve metabolic health. Whether it’s your first time or you’re considering adding these treatments to your regimen, here’s everything you need to know about what to expect before and after your first injection.

🌿 What Are Semaglutide & Tirzepatide?

Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are GLP-1 receptor agonists, medications that mimic the body’s natural hormones to help regulate appetite and blood sugar levels.

• Semaglutide – Helps reduce appetite, promotes satiety, and supports gradual, sustainable weight loss.

• Tirzepatide – Works on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors for enhanced weight loss, improved blood sugar control, and decreased cravings.

These medications are FDA-approved for weight management in individuals with overweight or obesity and can be integrated with diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes for best results.

What to Expect Before Your First Injection

Before your first dose, your Renovo provider will:

1. Review Your Medical History – Ensuring the medication is safe for you.

2. Discuss Goals – Tailoring dosage and expectations to your unique needs.

3. Provide Instructions – How to prepare, when to inject, and how to store your medication.

4. Set Expectations – Understanding that weight loss is gradual and results vary.

Tips for Preparation:

• Eat a balanced meal prior to your injection if recommended.
