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 Semaglutide – Compounding provides a tailored approach that allows for adjustments in dosing, formulation and ingredients. A certified pharmacy can ensure the medication is optimized for the patient.
  • Compounded Tirzepatide – Compounding harnesses the dual-action mechanism of GLP-1 and GIP incretin mimetics that can provide benefits beyond those of standalone GLP-1 medications.
  • Compounded Liraglutide – Unlike standard formulations, compounded liraglutide is prepared in a 503A compounding pharmacy based on the individual’s specific needs to adjust the formulation and dosage.
  • Compounded Methylene Blue – By acting as an electron carrier, methylene blue boosts mitochondrial function, which supports cellular energy production, reduces oxidative stress, and improves oxygen delivery.
  • 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

Do you offer medical weight loss?

Yes, we offer both traditional (non medical) and medical weight loss programs. All of our programs include simple and structured menus and one on one coaching with a team of weight loss professionals. We offer free consultations to all individuals interested in learning more about our weight loss programs (medical and non-medical).

Can a slow metabolism hinder my weight loss efforts?

Discover what makes your body unique from others, and find out how you can use the test results to your advantage. Common signs of hidden hormone disparity can include weight gain as well as difficulty losing weight. Metabolic programs can be?individualized for your unique needs.

How much do your medical weight loss programs cost?

Medical program availability and costs vary by location and strength. Medical programs typically start at $399-$499. This price is inclusive of one month of medication, your menu(s), and all of your coaching sessions, classes, and regular progress measurement. 

What kind of prescriptions do you offer for weight loss?

Do you have a weight loss plan for a vegetarian?

With more than three decades of experience in personalizing menu plans, Metabolic Research Center will individualize a weight program for vegetarians, vegans, and anyone with dietary restrictions. Moreover, you eat real, nutritious foods that you purchase at the store or select from the menu when dining out.

Do I have to exercise?

Although we encourage clients to adopt healthier lifestyles, your exercise regimen is up to you. Mild to moderate exercise helps you burn calories, manage stress, and sleep better. Those are all things that can impact weight gain and weight loss. Nonetheless, our weight loss programs focus on eating real foods that can help to restore balance - making it easier to shed unwanted pounds.

Do I have to eat pre-packaged meals?

No. In fact, you will replace processed foods with real foods that have a healing effect on the body. Your body's natural hormonal balance depends on the right mix of fruits, vegetables, fats, dairy, and proteins. Many unique or specific hormonal disparities usually can be adjusted with supplementation to your real food diet.

How old do you have to be to participate in prescription medical weight loss programs?

You must be at least 18 years of age to participate in any of our medical programs.
