We are pleased to be able to offer you an innovative weight loss therapy in our practice in D\u00fcsseldorf with immediate effect: treatment with modern GLP-1 receptor agonists (\"weight loss injections\"). These drugs were originally developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, but have proven to be extremely effective in weight reduction. Studies show that patients can reduce their body weight by up to 15 % - a decisive advantage for health and well-being. <\/p>\n

In our Consultation hours for weight reduction with medication<\/strong> we will advise you individually on the opportunities and risks and provide you with close medical support during the treatment. The treatment is suitable for people who are obese or overweight and have additional risk factors. In addition to prescribing medication, we support you with the necessary lifestyle changes through diet and exercise advice.<\/p>\n

As a rule, statutory health insurance companies do not currently cover the costs. We therefore also offer this therapy as a self-payer service<\/strong> on. We would be happy to advise you on the costs - please contact us.<\/p>\n

Obesity is a chronic disease with significant secondary diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, lipometabolic disorders and high blood pressure. New pharmacological approaches have significantly expanded the treatment options. GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide (Ozempic\u00ae, Wegovy\u00ae) or dulaglutide (Trulicity\u00ae) were originally developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, but also show a significant weight reduction of up to 15 % of the initial weight. Newer substances such as tirzepatide even enable weight loss of up to 25 % in studies. The mechanism of action is based on an inhibition of the feeling of hunger, delayed gastric emptying and an improved insulin effect. The therapy is usually given as a weekly subcutaneous injection and must be gradually increased in dosage to minimize gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea or diarrhoea. Simultaneous lifestyle modification with dietary changes and physical activity is important, as rapid weight gain often occurs after discontinuation of the medication. The treatment is approved for patients with obesity (BMI \u2265 30) or overweight (BMI \u2265 27) and at least one concomitant disease. This modern drug therapy is a promising addition to proven conservative measures and offers a new glimmer of hope for severely overweight patients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
