Semaglutide for Weight Loss in Florida

A weekly injection, a clear monthly price and a provider who checks in on your progress.

Semaglutide is a once-weekly prescription injection for long-term weight management. It copies a gut hormone called GLP-1, which reduces appetite and slows how quickly the stomach empties. BHRT Delivered prescribes compounded semaglutide to eligible Florida adults, online or in person at our Palm Beach County clinic, from $229 per month, with regular check-ins with a Florida-licensed provider.

Who semaglutide is for

Treatment may be appropriate for adults with:

A body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or

A BMI of 27 or higher plus a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol or type 2 diabetes.

It is meant to be used alongside changes to eating and activity.

Who should not take it

Do not take semaglutide if you:

Have had medullary thyroid cancer, or it runs in your family.

Have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).

Are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Have had a serious allergic reaction to semaglutide.

Tell your provider if you have had pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, kidney problems or diabetic eye disease, or if you take insulin or a sulfonylurea.

How much weight people lose

In the main clinical trial of Wegovy (STEP 1), adults without diabetes lost on average about 15% of their body weight over 68 weeks, compared with about 2% on placebo. Results vary, and some people lose less.

Weight usually returns if the medication is stopped, so treatment is generally long term.

This trial tested brand-name semaglutide. Compounded semaglutide has not been through the same trials.

What we prescribe

We prescribe compounded semaglutide, prepared by FarmaKeio and EVEXIAS. We do not prescribe brand-name Wegovy. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.

How treatment works

Free 15-minute phone consultation. We review your weight history, health conditions and medications.

Lab testing. You choose where: at our clinic, at a Quest Diagnostics location near you, or with a mobile phlebotomist who comes to your home or office.

Your plan. A Florida-licensed provider decides whether semaglutide is appropriate and writes your prescription.

Delivery. Medication ships to your Florida address.

Dose increases. Your provider sets your schedule. A typical plan starts at 0.25 mg once a week and steps up about every four weeks.

Follow-up. We retest at 90 days and at 6 months, then every 12 months. Your provider is available between tests for side effects or dose questions.

Side effects

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation and stomach pain. They are most likely when starting or increasing the dose and usually ease with time.

Less common but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, low blood sugar (mainly with insulin or sulfonylureas), kidney injury from dehydration, and worsening of diabetic eye disease. Semaglutide carries a warning about a type of thyroid tumor seen in animal studies; it is not known whether this happens in people.

Semaglutide or tirzepatide?

Both are weekly injections for weight management. Semaglutide has been in use longer and has trial evidence (SELECT) for lowering heart attack and stroke risk in people with heart disease. In a 2025 head-to-head trial, average weight loss was larger with tirzepatide (about 20%) than with semaglutide (about 14%). Your provider will help you choose. See our tirzepatide page.
