Medications

Ameri-Cal Weight Clinic uses the following
FDA-approved Medications:

Appetite Suppressant Program

*Phentermine (known by brand names Adipex, Fastin, or Pro-Fast)
*Phendimetrazine (known by the brand name Bontril)
*Diethylpropion (known by the brand name Tenuate)

These appetite suppressants are an important part of our weight loss program, which when coupled with diet and routine exercise, lead to significant weight loss.

These medications are safe, effective, and generally well tolerated.  They have been used by millions of people for more than 60 years.  However, they are not right for everyone.  These appetite suppressants should not be taken if you are pregnant or breast-feeding, if you have a history of heart disease, severe or uncontrolled high blood pressure, overactive thyroid, glaucoma, if you are in an agitated state, or if you have a history of drug or alcohol abuse.  Our physician will discuss these medications in the context of your health history prior to dispensing.

GLP-1 Program

*Tirzepatide (known by the brand name Mounjaro)
*Semaglutide (known by brand names Wegovy or Ozempic)
*Liraglutide (known by the brand name Saxenda)

Unlocking the power of GLP-1s at Ameri-Cal Weight Clinic. We are proud to offer the transformative potential of GLP-1s (Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists) in our weight loss programs. These medications have revolutionized the landscape of weight management, promoting sustainable weight loss and improving overall health. They help patients achieve their weight loss goals by stimulating insulin secretion and enhancing insulin sensitivity, improving glycemic control, reducing appetite, and increasing feelings of fullness. Our experienced team will work
closely with you to determine the best GLP-1 option suited to your goals and needs. Contact us today to take the first step towards a healthier, happier you.
