Benefits of Weight Loss Injections

If you no longer want to take weight loss pills but you still need to burn belly fat and lose weight, consider weight loss injections. When paired with a low-carb diet and regular exercise, injections are one of the most effective ways to lose weight. You’ll enjoy the following benefits of weight loss injections: 


Improved energy levels

Your energy and alertness will be improved by the high concentration of vitamin B and other essential minerals in weight loss injections. If you suffer from constant fatigue due to a vitamin B deficiency, this injection will be especially helpful. Increased energy levels help you to exercise more frequently and be more productive, resulting in an overall increase in weight loss!


Liver detoxification

One of the components of weight loss injections is choline, a natural liver detoxifier. Choline removes waste and helps to transport fat from the liver to cells throughout your body. Improved liver function supports weight loss by removing toxins and bad fat from your system.


Weight loss

When combined with regular exercise and a low-carb or other weight loss diet, weight loss injections are one of the best ways to shed pounds. Vitamins and minerals in the injections help to boost your metabolism, helping your body to utilize fat more effectively. They also reduce the stored fat and cholesterol in your cells.

Vitamin B-12

While no single fast and easy weight loss solution exists, our injections will help you reach your weight loss goals more quickly and safely than diet and exercise alone. If, for any reason, injections don’t appeal to you, we can also help with weight loss pills that produce similar results. Adding vitamin B-12 to your diet is one small change you can make that will increase the amount of fat that your body burns. Diet and exercise plans paired with injections or pills will help to achieve the weight loss results you’re looking for!


Our bodies need vitamin B-12 to function properly. This vitamin supports the health of the brain and nervous system and is important for the creation of red blood cells. When it comes to weight loss, B-12 aids in the synthesis of fatty acid and increases your energy levels. If you have a B-12 deficiency due to age or certain medical conditions or medications, injections could be the solution you need.

Possible Side Effects

Vitamin B-12 injections may not be the best option for everyone. Please be aware of the reported side effects when determining whether B-12 is right for you.

  • Pain at the Injection Site
  • Swelling
  • Allergic Reactions

Frequently Asked Questions About Vitamin B-12 Injections

  • How do Vitamin B-12 shots work?

    A high dose of vitamin B-12 will be injected directly into your bloodstream, helping to boost your energy level and metabolism, supporting your weight loss effort. By bypassing the digestive system, an injection results in a higher absorption rate of the vitamin.

  • How are B-12 shots administered?

    A healthcare professional will usually administer the shot in the muscles of the upper arm or buttocks.

  • Can B-12 shots replace a healthy diet and exercise for weight loss?

    B-12 shots are not a substitute for regular exercise and a balanced diet, but when combined with lifestyle changes, they can support your overall health and weight loss goals.

  • How often should B-12 shots be administered?

    Depending on your individual needs and health conditions, B-12 shots may be administered weekly or monthly. Your healthcare provider can help you to determine the right frequency for you.

Semaglutide Weight Loss Injections

Weekly Semaglutide injections are FDA approved for chronic weight management in obese adults with at least one health condition related to weight. Injections are administered under the skin. When paired with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, this injection can help you lose up to two pounds per week. At Clinic 45, we offer personalized care and support for clients who are interested in Semaglutide injections as a weight loss solution.


What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is a weight loss injection that mimics one of your body’s hormones to increase insulin secretion and slow the rate at which your stomach empties food. This helps you to feel full longer, suppressing your appetite and helping you lose weight.


Approved in 2017 for people with Type 2 diabetes, lower doses of this drug were used to control blood sugar levels. When it was discovered that Semaglutide also helped with weight loss, additional studies were conducted at a higher dose. This drug is now FDA approved for weight loss in qualified adults.


How Does Semaglutide Work for Weight Loss?

By mimicking the hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), Semaglutide affects the areas of your brain that regulate appetite. After you’ve eaten a meal, your digestive tract releases this incretin hormone, triggering insulin release to block sugar production and lower your blood sugar. This helps you eat less and can result in losing one to two pounds per week when paired with healthy lifestyle changes.


Prioritize your health and future. Consider an FDA-approved weight loss medication. Some options available are included below:

  • Vitamin B-12
  • Lipotropic
  • Tirzepatide Injections
  • Semaglutide Injections

Benefits of Semaglutide Weight Loss Injections

  • Blood sugar levels will be lowered with no increase in hypoglycemia.
  • Body weight, lipids, blood pressure, inflammatory markers, and oxidative stress will reduce.
  • Your appetite will be suppressed.
  • Insulin synthesis and secretion will be enhanced.
  • After eating or when fasting, glucagon levels will be reduced.
  • A sense of fullness will be promoted.
  • You’ll experience more significant improvement in the cardiovascular risk factors associated with obesity.

Possible Side Effects

To determine whether Semaglutide injections are right for your weight loss goals, consider the following reported side effects:

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Vomiting
  • Constipation
  • Stomach pain
  • Headache
  • Fatigue
  • Indigestion
  • Dizziness
  • Bloating
  • Burping

Frequently Asked Questions About Semaglutide

  • How much weight loss can be expected from Semaglutide?

    On average, patients can experience weight loss of 1-4 pounds per week on Semaglutide. Some patients achieve even greater results!

  • Do I still have to diet with Semaglutide?

    While being treated with Semaglutide, you will still need to follow dietary modifications and maintain a healthy lifestyle to achieve your weight loss goals. We recommend a ketogenic or low-carb diet.

  • What is the recommended duration for the administration of Semaglutide, and how often should I administer the injection?

    If you’re making consistent progress with your weight loss, we recommend that you continue using Semaglutide until you reach your desired goal. We also recommend that you choose a specific day and time each week to administer the treatment. Be sure to stick to this schedule.

  • I have never had an injection before; how do I do it, and does it hurt?

    Because a small needle is injected into adipose tissue, most patients report little to no discomfort during the injection of Semaglutide. Please consult with a healthcare professional at Clinic 45 for guidance on the administration of a Semaglutide injection. You can also follow us on Instagram @clinic45 or our Clinic 45 YouTube channel to see an easy how-to video.

  • Is Semaglutide expensive?

    Without insurance, brand-name medications can be costly and difficult to get, but compounding pharmacies can offer inexpensive solutions. At Clinic 45, we make every effort to provide cost-effective alternatives to high-priced brand-name medications while maintaining the quality needed to achieve your desired results.

  • Is it safe to take Semaglutide in combination with Phentermine?

    Yes, Phentermine and Semaglutide can be taken together, but it's essential to proceed under medical supervision.

Tirzepatide Weight Loss Injections

If you are attempting to manage type 2 and lose a significant amount of weight, tirzepatide injections may be right for you. This revolutionary medication uses the incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP to control blood sugar levels while helping patients lose weight. Through clinical studies, patients have been shown to be better able to manage obesity and diabetes with just one injection. Patients enjoy an easier medication management experience while improving their overall well-being.


Of course, like all medications, tirzepatide does have side effects. Patients may experience the following:

  • Constipation
  • Decreased appetite
  • Diarrhea
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea
  • Reactions at the site of the injection
  • Vomiting


Side effects aside, tirzepatide can be a great option for you if you’re hoping to lose weight and keep your diabetes under control at the same time. Ask the medical staff here at Clinic 45 if tirzepatide could be the right choice for you.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tirzepatide 

  • How does tirzepatide help patients lose weight?

    Tirzepatide combines the effects of two hormones, GLP-1 and GIP. Natural versions of these hormones control metabolism and appetite. Because the medication combines the effects of the hormones, patients experience better blood sugar control and a reduced appetite, which helps them lose weight.

  • Who can tirzepatide benefit?

    Patients with type 2 diabetes who are looking for weight loss solutions are prime candidates for tirzepatide. This medication can be even more beneficial for patients who struggle to control their weight through diet and exercise alone.

  • How much weight do patients using tirzepatide usually lose?

    Keep in mind that results will vary for all patients depending on how much they weigh to start with, how well they adhere to the treatment, and their medication dosage. However, results in clinical studies are promising. Some patients have lost up to 15% or more of their body weight.

  • When do patients start to see results from tirzepatide?

    Many patients see weight loss within just a few weeks of treatment and continue to lose weight over the next several months. However, to see these types of results, patients need to take their medication as prescribed consistently.

  • Can patients use tirzepatide just for weight loss?

    Yes, this is possible. However, tirzepatide is primarily for controlling type 2 diabetes and is not recommended for non-diabetics. A healthcare provider who fully understands your needs and history can evaluate whether tirzepatide is right for you and prescribe it if they determine the drug will help.
