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.
