Compounded Injections for Weight Control

Compounding allows the combination of multiple medications into a single, personalized patient solution by offering convenience alongside customization, such as removal of inactive allergens. While these medications are not FDA-approved, MRC’s certified compounding pharmacies follow rigorous quality standards and state-board regulations to ensure safety and efficacy. Discussed below are some of the compounded medications that may be prescribed to help you reach your long-term goals:

  • Compounded Weight Loss Shot – Unlike commercial versions, compounded weight loss shots may include different ingredients or additional components for specific prescription formulations or adjustments in dosages.
  • Compounded Peptide-Assisted Injection – Compounded peptide-assisted injections emerged as a vital solution for patients during national medication shortages and personalized prescriptions that align with an individual’s unique medical requirements.
  • Compounded Weight Medication – Compounded weight medications contains the active ingredient found in well-known medications, but is prepared in a compounding pharmacy for each individual’s prescriptive needs.
  • Compounded Methylene Blue – Acting as an electron carrier, compounded methylene blue facilitates energy production within mitochondria, the cell's powerhouse, effectively improving cellular energy output.
  • Compounded NAD+ – NAD+ compounded medications are designed to support diverse health goals such as improving energy metabolism, promoting anti-aging benefits, and aiding in addiction recovery.
  • Compounded Lipo-B (MIC+B12) – Compounded Lipo-B injections, often referred to as lipotropic injections, are crafted with a combination of vitamins, amino acids, and essential nutrients to support metabolic health.
  • Compounded GAC (glutamine, arginine, carnitine) – Compounded GAC injectables are carefully crafted by a certified 503A compounding pharmacy to support healing, recovery, and overall wellness.
  • Compounded Glutathione – By neutralizing harmful free radicals and reducing oxidative stress, compounded glutathione safeguards cells, promotes cellular repair, and supports overall wellness.
  • Compounded Sermorelin – Compounded sermorelin is a synthetic 29-amino acid polypeptide designed to mimic the body's natural GHRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone) for improving energy efficiency.

Compounded injectable medications offer a personalized approach to addressing unique patient needs, particularly in cases where standard, FDA-approved medications fall short. Whether it’s adjusting dosages, removing allergens, or providing alternatives during medication shortages, compounded injections provide vital solutions that mass-produced pharmaceuticals cannot always deliver. Specialized formulations are created by licensed pharmacists who combine, mix, or alter ingredients based on a clinician’s prescription to meet individual needs.
