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 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe for me to do another round of prescription weight loss after the first?

Many individuals taking prescription weight loss go right into their next round without a pause or waiting period. Your Weight Loss Specialist and/or healthcare provider will discuss options for continuing your compounded weight loss medication.

What is the purpose of one-on-one meetings?

Our consultants believe your weight loss strategy should be as unique as you are. Far beyond the routine recommendation to limit calories and exercise regularly, we'll explain how your body manages what you eat. That way you can optimize your weight loss efforts. You can also discuss, in private, all of the unique circumstances you are facing, such as an upcoming social event or any concerns you have in following your program.

Are your weight loss products approved by the Federal Drug Administration?

The FDA does not require a review of dietary supplements and weight loss products like they do with potentially dangerous new drugs. GMP is the system used to ensure our vitamins, minerals, supplements, dietary foods, weight loss aids and snack foods are produced and controlled according to Good Manufacturing Practice standards.

What is so important about eating a real food diet?

Your body needs a variety of macronutrients (protein, carbohydrate, and fat). Good nutrition is an essential part of maintaining your health and wellness. Along with being physically active, a real food diet can help you maintain a healthy weight and reduce your risk of metabolic syndrome and other chronic diseases.

How long do I have to wait before starting another round of compounded medications?

Most individuals who are in need of another round of medication can go right into their next round without a pause or waiting period. Your Weight Loss Specialist and/or healthcare provider will discuss options for continuing your compounded weight loss medication.

Does your program work for women with thyroid problems?

At Metabolic Research Center, we know that hidden hormone imbalance can be the missing link to successful, long-term weight loss success. That's why we offer a Hormone Testing kit to detect and correct. Our approach helps balance your hormones to enhance weight loss and restore your energy and stamina.

Do I need to have commercial health insurance in order to participate in your medical weght loss programs?

No, you do not need to have commercial health insurance in order to participate in prescription weight loss with Metabolic Research Center. A referral is not required either.

My doctor recommended I start this medication. Do I still need to have a medical screening?

Yes. Our healthcare provider will be the one to write your prescription; so, they will also need to screen you for eligiblity and participation before your weight loss medication can be written and filled by our licensed compounding pharmacy partners.
