Licensed providers. In-home visits in Brooklyn, NY, and Las Vegas and North Las Vegas, NV.
(718) 218-4791info@briyahealth.comA weekly GLP-1 medicine for weight management, started and monitored at home by a New York-licensed provider anywhere in Brooklyn.
Semaglutide is a weekly shot that copies a gut hormone called GLP-1. It helps you feel full sooner and eat less. It is FDA-approved as Wegovy for weight management and as Ozempic for type 2 diabetes.
Adults with obesity, or with overweight plus a weight-related health problem. It is not safe if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2, or if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy.
Your provider reviews your history and labs, then starts a low dose that rises slowly over several months. You check in along the way so your provider can manage side effects and track progress.
Your plan is built and monitored by a licensed provider, not a general wellness coach.
Your plan is built around your health history and goals, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Every visit happens where you are, on a schedule that fits your life.
Your provider asks about your weight history, current medicines and any history of thyroid cancer, pancreatitis, gallbladder disease or diabetic eye disease.
Your blood pressure, weight and waist are measured. Blood can be drawn at the visit to check blood sugar, A1c, kidney function and cholesterol.
The weight-loss form starts at 0.25 mg once a week for four weeks. This low dose helps your stomach adjust. Your provider shows you how to inject.
The dose usually rises every four weeks toward the 2.4 mg maintenance dose over about four months. If side effects are hard, your provider can slow the pace.
Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain and headache are most common, especially as the dose goes up. They often ease after a few weeks on the same dose.
Call your provider for severe stomach pain, signs of dehydration, a lump in your neck, trouble swallowing or vision changes if you have diabetes. Rapid blood sugar improvement can briefly worsen diabetic eye disease, so tell your provider if you have it.
Semaglutide is not safe if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2, or if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy. Stop it at least two months before trying to conceive.
Many Brooklyn patients fit visits around commutes, school pickups and long workdays. Your provider comes to your home, so a check-in takes the time of the visit itself, not a subway ride and a waiting room.
New York requires prescriptions to be sent to the pharmacy electronically. Your provider sends yours directly and lets you know what to expect for pickup or delivery.
Brand-name semaglutide pens can be kept between 46°F and 86°F for up to 28 days, and they must never freeze. Do not leave a delivery in a cold vestibule in winter or on a sunny sill in summer.
In a large trial, adults on the weight-loss dose lost about 15% of their body weight on average over 68 weeks, along with lifestyle changes. Some people lose more and some lose less.
Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting and constipation are most common, especially early on. They often ease with time. Call your provider about severe stomach pain or signs of dehydration.
No. Semaglutide acts on one hormone (GLP-1). Tirzepatide acts on two (GLP-1 and GIP). Your provider can help you decide which fits your health and goals.
