Losing weight—and keeping it off—is a marathon, not a sprint. In other words, what works for one person may not work for another. If you’ve tried every diet and workout plan without lasting success, there’s good news: weight loss medications like Ozempic (Semaglutide) can help you take control of your health.
However, just like any prescription, these medications aren’t for everyone. It’s essential to have a conversation with a trusted medical provider to determine if they’re the right fit for you. Let’s explore how Legacy Medical is helping patients overcome obesity through a new weight loss medication.
Why Are Patients Asking About Weight Loss Medications?
Weight loss medications aren’t a quick fix for fitting into a bridesmaid’s dress or dropping a few pounds to look dapper for a class reunion. They’re designed to address obesity and its serious health risks, which, according to the Mayo Clinic, include:
- Heart disease
- Liver disease
- High blood pressure & cholesterol
- Type 2 diabetes
- Certain cancers
Ultimately, if you’re struggling with obesity and traditional weight loss methods haven’t worked, a medical approach could help.

Do You Need a Specialist for a Prescription?
No! Your primary care provider can assess your eligibility for weight loss medications through a routine appointment. A physical exam and health history review are often enough to determine if this treatment is right for you.
