  • 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 creating injectable NAD+ solutions, compounding pharmacies ensure that patients receive targeted treatments to replenish vital coenzyme levels for improvements in their cellular health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my prescription included with my medical weight loss program?

Yes, your medical weight loss program includes your prescription, medical supplies, menu(s), and personalized coaching.

What medical weight loss options do you offer?

We offer several different medical weight loss options and support including compounded prescriptions, Vitamin B12 injections, other peptide mediations, and more. Availability and pricing of medical weight loss varies from location to location.

I diet but have only succeeded in gaining more weight. Can MRC create a diet for me?

Yes, we can. Following the wrong diet plan can be frustrating and often results in packing on additional pounds. We've invested more than 35 years of research and experience into our personalized menus and customized weight loss programs. Our staff will educate you on what your body needs and provide encouragement for you to succeed.

Do I need to have labs done through you or can I use my own?

In most cases, lab work is not required. Should our physician need to see your labs, they will let you know on an individual, case-by-case basis. If labs are needed, then you are welcome to provide your own from your primary healthcare provider, provided they are in date and include any required panels.

Do you offer a 21-day keto meal plan?

We go a step further. Our staff can outline a 21-day keto meal plan as well as teach you how to personalize your own keto recipes. We also offer special supplementation to jump-start your keto diet by reducing the time it takes for your body to attain metabolic ketosis.

How can DNA analysis help me lose weight?

Metabolic's comprehensive DNA results provide extensive detail into what may be hindering your efforts to lose weight and keep it off. Using the results, we can develop a program customized to your genetic makeup and take the guesswork out of what your body needs.

I don't have diabetes or prediabetes. Can I still be approved for a prescription?

Yes, you can still qualify for weight loss medications through Metabolic Research Center without a diabetes or prediabetes diagnosis. Your healthcare provider will conduct a thorough qualifying exam to determine eligibility for participation in prescription weight loss with MRC.

I lose some and gain it back with more. Will your menu plan work for me?

Yes, we personalize each menu plan. At MRC, we don't do diets. Most of the weight you lose following a fad (or highly restrictive) diet is not sustainable. This often causes people to become frustrated with their own efforts. If the diet plan you were following always left you feeling hungry, it was doomed to fail. Our programs have you eat real food and supplement any hormonal disparities.
