Daily Protein Targets While Taking Semaglutide Most weight-loss specialists recommend 0.8 to 1.0 grams of protein per pound of goal body weight when using GLP-1 medications
The body may break down muscle tissue along with fat for energy
Still, there are ways to manage physical discomfort while taking GLP-1 medications and, if and when the time is right for a patient, breast appearance, too
Some plans cover semaglutide (Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Zepbound) with copays of $25-$300/month, but many plans dont cover weight loss medications or require extensive prior authorization
As a result, in the United States and some other countries, semaglutide is prescribed and sold as Ozempic when prescribed for diabetes and as Wegovy for weight loss
