Compounded Injections for Weight Control
Compounded medications, while not subject to the same rigorous FDA testing as mass-produced pharmaceuticals, play an essential role in addressing the unique needs of patients. This is particularly evident during shortages of commercial drugs or when standardized formulations fail to meet individual health requirements and must be customized for each patient. 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 NAD+ – Compounded NAD+ serves as an essential coenzyme and a signaling molecule that helps keep our mitochondria functioning properly to maintain cellular homeostasis and DNA repair.
- Compounded Lipo-B (MIC+B12) – Compounded lipotropic injections work synergistically to enhance the body’s natural metabolic processes, improving fat oxidation and promoting efficient energy utilization.
- Compounded GAC (glutamine, arginine, carnitine) – Expertly crafted by certified compounding pharmacies, compounded GAC injections are a pioneering solution for those looking to optimize overall wellness.
- Compounded Glutathione – By supporting detoxification processes, compounded glutathione plays a pivotal role in maintaining overall cellular health and promoting weight-related wellness.
- Compounded Sermorelin – Compounded sermorelin plays a crucial role in enhancing the body’s natural rejuvenation processes to restore overall vitality and reduce stubborn abdominal fat deposits.

A Personalized Approach to Weight Management
The typical advice of reducing calorie intake and increasing exercise often falls flat for those needing lose substantial weight. Easier said than done, right? This is due to the body’s natural response that triggers appetite hormone that leads to overeating and weight regain. Weight loss medications are revolutionizing the way our bodies feel hunger. Whether you qualify for prescriptive medications or prefer a traditional approach, our programs are rooted in science and tailored to your needs.
If you’re ready to embark on a transformative weight loss journey, contact us to learn more about our proven approaches. Together, we can make lasting changes and help you achieve your goals for healthy living, including:
EATING REAL FOOD – Instead of focusing on dietary restrictions, you and your coach will concentrate on adding nutritious options to your menu plan. Eating a diet rich in whole foods makes it easier for most people to lose weight and maintain it over time. MRC menu plans are based on real foods that naturally limit your body's absorption of fats and sugars, helping you lose weight and reduce your cravings for less healthy food options. Less sugar and higher fiber intake helps prevent post-meal crashes.
1-ON-1 COACHING – With one-on-one coaching sessions, you will develop a heightened self-awareness of how dietary changes and physical activity impact your goals. MRC coaches at the medical weight loss clinic Lafayette, many of whom have been in your shoes, will work one-on-one with you to create a personalized action plan, monitor your progress, address any concerns, and help you stay accountable to your goals. Our clinics provide a sense of community to further support your weight loss journey.
HORMONE BALANCING – If you have been struggling to lose weight and keep it off, you might be experiencing hormone imbalances. The MRC Hormone Test Kit provides a quick and easy way to identify these imbalances, offering you a clear path to more effective weight management. Symptoms of hormonal imbalances can include unexplained weight gain, fatigue, depression, or anxiety. At MRC, balancing your hormones is not just about losing weight; it's about improving your health and well-being.
MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS PLANS – Since losing five to ten percent of your total body weight and maintaining it can lead to significant health benefits, the latest weight loss medications should be considered for those who qualify. Prescription weight loss drugs combined with a balanced diet and one-on-one coaching can yield results that go beyond just the number on a scale. Weight loss injections may be especially beneficial for those who have struggled to find a lasting weight loss solution.
