Compounded Injections for Weight Control
Unlike FDA-approved drugs that are mass produced, compounded injections are not subject to the same rigorous safety and efficacy testing. However, these medications are often necessary for patients who require specific adjustments to factors like dosage, formulation, or added ingredients for an individual’s unique metabolic needs. Additionally, when certain medications are in short supply, the FDA permits compounding. Discussed below are some of the compounded medications that may be prescribed to help you reach your long-term goals:
- Compounded Weight Medications – Compounded weight medications is a custom-made version of the popular receptor agonist but is formulated by a compounding pharmacy for a patient’s specific needs rather than commercially produced.
- Compounded Peptide-Assisted Shots – Compounding allows for tailored formulations of peptide-assisted drugs with dual-action mechanisms, whether by modifying dosage strengths or adding nutrients like B12 and glycine for the person’s needs.
- Compounded Weight Loss Injections – Like popular meds, compounded weight loss injections work by mimicking natural hormones to slow gastric emptying and enhance feelings of fullness to help reduce overall food intake.
- Compounded Methylene Blue – Compounded methylene blue acts as an electron carrier that facilitates energy production within the powerhouse mitochondria cells to benefit those with dysfunction or chronic illnesses.
- Compounded NAD+ – While NAD+ isn't commercially available in a standard form, it can be compounded by a certified pharmacy to address specific patient needs like anti-aging, metabolism and addiction recovery.
- Compounded Lipo-B (MIC+B12) – Compounded Lipo-B injections, also known as lipotropic injections, are formulated with a mix of vitamins, amino acids, and key compounds that support enhancing metabolic health.
- Compounded GAC (glutamine, arginine, carnitine) – Regular use of GAC formulas is linked to improved energy, better circadian rhythm and faster recovery after exercise with reduced risk of chronic conditions.
- Compounded Glutathione – Glutathione is a naturally occurring compound in the body that serves as a powerful antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals.
- Compounded Sermorelin – By mimicking the natural release of human growth hormones, sermorelin enhances the body’s cell repair and regeneration processes to support overall health and vitality.
Compounded weight-loss medications open the door for new opportunities, as more patients have access to effective, tailored solutions for achieving long-term metabolic health improvements. However, it is vital to consult a doctor or clinician before using any compounded injections to ensure it is safe and suitable for meeting your body’s unique needs. In addition, MRC’s compounded injectables may provide a cost-effective alternative that is also more affordable than brand-name versions.

With our compounded medications, you won’t have to endure feelings of starvation while losing weight.
Your prescription medications mimic the natural release of peptide hormones in the gastrointestinal tract that travel to the hunger center in your brain and signal that you are full. Plus, the mechanism known as delayed gastric emptying makes you fell full longer, so you don’t have to deal with annoying cravings, helping you to naturally eat less at meal times.

A Tailored Approach to Improve Your Well-Being
Compounded weight loss medications work primarily by regulating chemical messengers in the brain, digestive system, and adipose tissue to promote satiety while suppressing appetite and eliminating boredom eating. Early indicators suggest that whichever medication you choose, weight loss works best when combined with a personalized plan that includes knowledgeable support.
In addition to compounded injectables, our medical weight loss clinic Dothan offers a wide range of programs, including menu plans to help shed unwanted fat gain using these effective, proven approaches:
- EATING REAL FOOD – Consuming minimally-processed animal and plant foods can help provide important vitamins and minerals you need for optimal health and wellness. Combining a personalized menu plan from Metabolic Research Center in Dothan can help you avoid overly processed foods that are loaded with added sugars, less healthy fats, and sodium. In addition, whole foods may help support the good bacteria that live in your gut, better supporting overall digestive health.
- 1-ON-1 COACHING – One-on-one coaching can help you develop an increased self-awareness as to how changes in your dietary intake and physical activity are impacting your ability to achieve your personal goals. Let’s face it. Everyone needs a little nudge every now and then, and most of our weight loss coaches have been in your shoes before. You will work with your coach to create action plans, monitor your progress, discuss any concerns, and stay accountable to your objectives.
- HORMONE BALANCING – One of the most common culprits of weight loss difficulty is a hormone imbalance. Your body is always changing throughout your life and common imbalances have been linked to reduced metabolism and increased fat storage, which can make losing weight more difficult. That’s why Metabolic Research Center offers an at-home MRC Hormone Test Kit. A quick swab can tell you and your weight loss coach what may be interfering with your chemical messengers.
- MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS PLANS – When it comes to weight loss, we don't take a one-size-fits-all approach at our medical weight loss clinics. Our medical providers will prescribe weight loss medications based on what's best for your body. Weight loss is a complex process and the speed at which you see results will depend on a variety of factors, including your starting weight, your diet, and your exercise habits. This is where our personalized menus and 1-on-1 coaching can help to ensure sustainable results.
Compounded medications may indirectly influence metabolic processes by helping you eliminate between meal snacking and consume lesser quantities of food overall. When combined with the right guidance and support, using these medications can increase the possibility of losing weight that can be maintained for long-term improvements to your well-being.
