FAQ

What is Wegovy®?

Wegovy® (semaglutide) is an FDA-approved prescription medication used for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or excess weight. It belongs to a class of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists.

Wegovy® works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar, which can support reduced food intake and healthier eating patterns when combined with lifestyle changes.

FAQ

How effective is Wegovy® for weight loss?

Wegovy® has been clinically studied for weight management. In clinical trials, adults who used Wegovy® alongside diet and lifestyle changes lost an average of 14–15% of their body weight over one year.*

Individual results vary based on factors such as dosage, adherence, lifestyle habits, and overall health.

FAQ

What is the Wegovy® pill, and how is it different from the Wegovy® pen?

Both the Wegovy® pill and the Wegovy® pen contain the same active ingredient, semaglutide, and are FDA-approved for weight management. The main difference is how and how often they’re taken.

Similarities:

  • Both are FDA-approved Wegovy® formulations
  • Both use semaglutide as the active ingredient
  • Both follow a gradual dose-increase schedule determined by a provider
  • Side effects are generally similar and can be managed with provider support

Differences:

  • Wegovy® pen: Taken as a once-weekly injection
  • Wegovy® pill: Taken orally once per day

Your Shed provider will help determine which option may be appropriate based on your health history, preferences, and treatment goals.

FAQ

What’s the difference between Ozempic® and Wegovy®?

Both medications contain semaglutide, but they are FDA-approved for different uses.

  • Ozempic® is approved to treat type 2 diabetes
  • Wegovy® is specifically approved for chronic weight management

In some cases, providers may prescribe Ozempic® off-label for weight management when appropriate, but Wegovy® is the formulation designed and approved for weight loss.

Questions about Men’s 5-1 Hair Solution? We've got answers.

What’s in this medication?

This topical medication contains five ingredients: minoxidil (5%), finasteride (0.25%), tretinoin (0.01%), vitamin E (0.1%), and fluocinolone (0.1%). These components are selected for their potential roles in supporting scalp health and improving the appearance of thinning hair.

How does it help with hair loss?

This medication targets several factors that may contribute to hair thinning. Minoxidil helps improve blood flow to the scalp and supports the hair growth cycle. Finasteride is believed to reduce DHT, a hormone linked to hair follicle shrinkage. Tretinoin promotes skin cell turnover and may enhance ingredient absorption. Fluocinolone helps reduce inflammation and vitamin E provides antioxidant support that may benefit scalp health.

Who’s this product ideal for?

This product may be appropriate for men experiencing hair thinning or early-stage hair loss who are looking for a topical treatment option. A healthcare provider can determine if this medication is right for you based on your medical history and treatment goals.

How long will it take to see results?

Individual results may vary. Some users may begin to notice changes in hair appearance after three to six months of consistent use. Continued application is typically needed to maintain any visible benefits.

What are the possible side effects?

Possible side effects may include scalp irritation such as itching, redness, flaking, or dryness. In rare cases, allergic reactions or other systemic effects may occur. Consult your healthcare provider if you experience any concerning or persistent symptoms.

Who should not take this medication?

This medication should not be used by women, especially those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is also not recommended for those with known allergies to any of the ingredients or with active scalp infections or open wounds. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting a new medication, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are using other topical treatments.

Compounded medications are prepared by licensed pharmacies to meet individual patient needs. While they are not reviewed or approved by the FDA for safety or effectiveness, they are made in accordance with strict regulatory guidelines.. Medication is prescribed only after consultation with a licensed provider to determine appropriateness. Product images are for illustrative purposes only. Individual results may vary.

Post-Finasteride Syndrome (PFS) DisclaimerIn rare cases, some individuals report persistent side effects after stopping finasteride, a condition referred to as Post-Finasteride Syndrome (PFS). Symptoms may include sexual, neurological, and psychological changes. PFS is not fully understood or recognized by the FDA and remains under investigation. Consult a healthcare provider to discuss potential risks and benefits before starting or discontinuing finasteride.

Mental Health Disclaimer Although uncommon, finasteride has been associated in some cases with changes in mood, anxiety, depression, and rare reports of suicidal thoughts or behavior. These effects may occur during use or after discontinuation. If you experience any changes in mental state, seek medical attention immediately. Consult a healthcare provider to discuss potential risks and benefits before starting or discontinuing any medications.
