The speaker describes a clinical-trial-style project run at their South Carolina office: overweight/obese participants received weekly semaglutide injections for a few months then were switched to metformin. Over the four-month program the average weight loss was 24 pounds (about 12.5% of body weight), and the speaker reports no weight regain after stopping semaglutide.

Chapters

Here's a ninth clinical trial we did in our office in our South Carolina location. We had individuals were, that were overweight or obese or extremely obese and we put them on semaglutide instead of, instead of a year, just for a few months and then switch them over to metformin. So this is a four month weight loss project using both semaglutide, the injectable every week and then switching over to metformin to keep the weight off. So in this group of patients, the average weight loss was 24 pounds and 4 four months. There was no weight gain after removal of semaglutide and there was an average of 12 and a half percent body weight lost.
