Compounded Injections for Weight Control
At Metabolic Research Center, we’ve spent over 35 years delivering science-backed, personalized weight-loss solutions tailored to each individual's unique needs. Compounded weight medications, including incretin analogues are custom-formulated by certified compounding pharmacies and prescribed by MRC’s network of licensed practitioners, who are responsible for documenting the patient’s specifics. 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 – Compounded methylene blue allows for precise, individualized formulations to meet specific needs for those with mitochondrial dysfunction to help boost cellular energy production.
- Compounded NAD+ – With age, declining NAD+ levels contribute to reduced cellular efficiency and an increased risk of age-related health conditions, so compounded NAD+ helps to restore balance.
- Compounded Lipo-B (MIC+B12) – By combining a unique blend of vitamins, amino acids, and nutrients such as B12, methionine, inositol, and choline, these injections work synergistically to optimize metabolic processes.
- Compounded GAC (glutamine, arginine, carnitine) – The certified compounding pharmacies creating compounded GAC injections ensure the use of only high-quality ingredients with precise concentrations.
- Compounded Glutathione – While naturally produced in the body, glutathione can also be compounded to meet individual health needs for supporting detoxification and overall cellular repair.
- Compounded Sermorelin – Compounded sermorelin is a synthetic 29-amino acid polypeptide designed to replicate the natural growth hormone-releasing hormone in the body to increase energy levels.
While maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise remains essential for long-term weight management, compounded injectables offer additional support for those requiring tailored interventions. However, because compounded medications do not undergo the same FDA efficacy and safety testing as mass-produced drugs, it’s crucial to work with a reputable compounding pharmacy and consult with your healthcare provider to ensure these formulations are the right fit for your specific needs.

Compounded weight medciations to control hunger.
Losing weight can be challenging, but with the help of prescriptive receptor agonists and proper weight management training, sustainable results are well within reach. The latest weight loss medications work by mimicking the peptide hormone, which is naturally produced in the gut by your body, and not only regulates blood sugar levels, but also enhances feelings of fullness.
For obese and overweight individuals with weight-related health issues, prescription compounded injections can give their weight management plan the jumpstart it needs. But, this is just the beginning of a client’s personal transformation to healthy living. Studies show the best outcomes combine effective medication with coaching, education, and lifestyle adjustments.

MRC's Personalized Approach to Weight Control
Compounded weight loss medications can play a key role in managing weight by regulating chemical messengers in the brain, your digestive system, and fat tissue. However, the best weight loss results are often achieved when these medications are combined with a personalized plan that includes expert support, one-on-one coaching, hormone monitoring, and lots of celebration.
At Metabolic Research Center, we understand that every weight loss story is as unique as the person living it. Whether you choose medications or a more traditional hormone-balancing plan, we provide complete solutions, including:
- EATING REAL FOOD – At MRC, we craft personalized menu plans focusing on real, wholesome foods found in grocery stores and restaurants. No pre-packaged meals or calorie counting, just quality proteins, essential fats, wholesome carbs, and balanced nutrition. Consuming whole foods rather than processed foods, not only reduces added sugars, unhealthy fats, and sodium, but supports good gut bacteria and digestion. Plus, by eating real food, you’ll see improvements in health markers like energy levels and digestion.
- 1-ON-1 COACHING – Through one-on-one coaching sessions, MRC will help you develop self-awareness about the impact of dietary choices and physical activities for your progress. They’ll provide practical advice, customized meal plans featuring whole foods, and tools for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. By choosing nutrient-rich whole foods, you can not only enjoy your meals but also enhance your overall well-being, improving factors like cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight management naturally.
- HORMONE BALANCING – Hormonal imbalances can significantly influence weight management, affecting calorie utilization, metabolism, and even hunger levels. That’s why we offer an at-home MRC Hormone Test Kit that helps identify hormonal disruptions that may be hindering your weight goals. More than just impacting weight gain, hormonal shifts can lead to fatigue, depression, anxiety, and irregular heartbeat. With a science-backed plan, it not only helps you lose weight but also improves your well-being.
- MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS PLANS –For those seeking an advanced solution for shedding pounds, we offer compounded injectables, which are prescription medications that reduce hunger by slowing gastric emptying and triggering a hormone response to lessen your daily dietary intake. Best of all, with our compounded medications, you won’t have to endure feelings of starvation or rely on pre-packaged meals. Eat real food, feel satisfied, and achieve your weight loss goals with expert guidance and support from our team.
For over 35 years, MRC has relied on science-backed principles of weight loss to develop personalized programs that empower individuals to succeed.
