Based on several clinical studies, GLP-1 medications can help you to lose up to 20% of your body weight in a year combined with diet and exercise.
- Clinical trials of Mounjaro (a GLP-1/GIP medication) show it can help you lose on average up to 20% of your body weight in one year.
- Clinical trials of Wegovy (a GLP-1 medication) in people without diabetes, show it can help you lose on average up to 15% of your body weight in one year.
- Clinical trials of Saxenda (a GLP-1 medication) in people without diabetes, show it can help you lose on average up to 9% of their body weight in 56 weeks.
- Clinical trials for Ozempic (a GLP-1 medication) in people with diabetes, show it can help you lose on average up to 7% in one year.
Levity offers several injectable treatments, which are proven to be highly effective for sustainable weight loss.
We offer GLP-1 medications like Compounded Semaglutide with Glycine and B12, Wegovy®, Saxenda® and Ozempic®, along with GIP/GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro®.
These medications work by mimicking natural gut hormones that signal your brain to reduce appetite, enhance metabolism and improve digestion, which causes prolonged fullness and better nutrient absorption.
All our medications are clinically validated and can support your weight loss journey. Your Levity clinical reviewer will determine the most suitable option for you.

If you don’t feel you’re getting the results you want from your weight loss medication, there are steps you can take.
First, it’s important to give the medication some time to work. Our experts recommend using your weight loss medication for at least 6 months to judge its effectiveness. Remember that individual responses can vary, and your body may need some time to adapt. We also start your treatment at a low dose and increase it gradually, so it’s normal to not see a lot of weight loss in the first month or two.
We’re here to support you throughout your weight loss journey. If you have concerns about the effectiveness of your medication, or any side effects you’re experiencing, your Levity medical team is ready to support you. They can provide guidance, answer your questions and explore possible adjustments to your treatment plan.
Remember, you also have the flexibility to cancel your treatment at any time. We understand that weight loss is a unique and evolving process, and your health and satisfaction are our top priorities. If, after consultation and a reasonable trial period, you and your medical team decide that the medication is not the right fit for you, you have the freedom to explore alternative options.

Yes, most of our prescriptions require blood work. We need to see blood test results to complete a full weight loss evaluation, as there could be underlying conditions that affect your weight, or could prevent us from prescribing certain medications.
Providing blood work results means our team can be well informed when reviewing your treatment, so you can be confident you’re receiving the right treatment plan for you.

The science behind GLP-1s
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists mimics and enhance the effects of GLP-1, a hormone produced in your body. They work primarily by influencing your brain to reduce "food noise" — those persistent thoughts about eating - which helps decrease snacking and overall food intake.
They also:
Dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and GLP-1 receptor agonist more commonly called GIP/GLP-1 agonists act on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors.
Like GLP-1 agonists they affect the brain to reduce food cravings and intake. Additionally, they enhance insulin secretion and improve insulin sensitivity, making them particularly effective for blood sugar control.
Both medications have systemic effects, but their impact on brain signalling related to hunger and satiety is a key factor in their effectiveness for weight management.
They also:
- Regulate blood sugar levels
- Slow down digestion
- Increase feelings of fullness
