Compounded Injections for Weight Control

While maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise are fundamental for long-term weight control, compounded injectables provide an additional layer of support for those needing personalized interventions. At MRC, licensed clinicians work with certified compounding pharmacists to prescribe and prepare individualized formulations that align with a patient’s specific medical needs. 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+ – By offering tailored formulations, often in injectable form, compounding pharmacies address specific health goals such as boosting energy metabolism and promoting anti-aging benefits.
  • Compounded Lipo-B (MIC+B12) – Compounded Lipo-B injections aim to boost the body’s natural metabolic processes, making fat oxidation and energy management more efficient.
  • Compounded GAC (glutamine, arginine, carnitine) – Rich in essential vitamins, minerals, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids, compounded GAC injections are also linked to a reduced risk of chronic diseases.
  • Compounded Glutathione – When prepared as a compounded formulation by a pharmacist, glutathione can be customized to meet individual needs by enhancing the ingredients overall effectiveness.
  • Compounded Sermorelin – Compounded sermorelin, a synthetic 29-amino acid polypeptide, is designed to mimic the natural growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) in the body to enhance energy levels.

Compounded weight medications are created by certified compounding pharmacies, which adhere to strict state pharmacy board regulations and comply with rigorous quality standards to ensure safety and effectiveness. While these medications are not FDA-approved, they provide flexibility and are prescribed by licensed healthcare providers when standard formulations or doses are unsuitable. This personalized care offers a cost-effective alternative to brand-name drugs and opens new doors for achieving sustainable metabolic health.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which weight loss plan is best for me?

Our weight loss consultants can answer that question and will give you the tools that you need to succeed. We educate you as to your body's unique makeup and keep you on course until you reach your target weight. Our personalized weight loss menus will leave you feeling content and in charge - making healthy weight loss a lot easier.

Do you accept insurance for prescription weight loss?

At this time we are unable to process insurance through our offices. We do accept Flex Spending and HSA on applicable purchases of weight loss medications and products. Some carriers may also reimburse you for all or part of your medical program costs; this is a conversation best had with your carrier to see what they will cover. Our prescription medications are affordably priced so that the vast majority of individuals are able to afford their medication without the supplementation of insurance.

I am desperate for a change. Can MRC help me get back on track?

When it comes to diet and exercise, it is easy to get stuck in a rut. While having a structured eating plan and exercise regimen is incredibly important to your success, if it is too rigid, you may get bored or grow tired of doing the same thing day in and day out. Our weight loss consultants can provide the tools and support to keep you on track until your goal weight is achieved.

Do your medications cost thousands of dollars a month?

No. Our prescription weight loss medications do not cost thousands of dollars a month. Our compounded weight loss prescriptions start at $399-$499 for a one month supply. This includes your prescription, medical supplies, menu(s), and personalized coaching.
