Semaglutide in Albuquerque : Medical Weight Loss with Medication Included
Semaglutide is the FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist behind Ozempic and Wegovy, one of the most clinically significant advances in weight loss medicine in decades. At Nursify Aesthetics in Albuquerque, our licensed Nurse Practitioner supervises every semaglutide programme with medication included from $250 per month.
Semaglutide works by mimicking GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), a hormone that regulates appetite, slows gastric emptying, and improves blood sugar control. The result is significantly reduced hunger, smaller portion satisfaction, and improved metabolic function. Clinical trials show an average weight loss of approximately 15% of total body weight over 68 weeks, a result that was previously only achievable through bariatric surgery.
At Nursify Aesthetics in Albuquerque, every semaglutide client begins with a comprehensive consultation with our Medical Director, Katrina Trujillo NP. We review your full medical history, current medications, and weight loss goals before recommending a starting dose. Semaglutide is initiated at a low dose and titrated gradually to minimize side effects while maximizing efficacy.
Our monthly membership includes the full cost of your semaglutide medication, no separate pharmacy trips, no hidden costs. Monthly follow-up consultations are included to review your progress, adjust dosing if needed, and provide ongoing clinical support. We also offer tirzepatide for clients who want the most effective GLP-1 option currently available.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does semaglutide cost in Albuquerque?
Our semaglutide programme starts at $250 per month with the full cost of medication included. There are no additional pharmacy costs. An initial consultation with our Medical Director is required before starting.
How much weight can I lose with semaglutide?
Clinical trials show an average weight loss of approximately 15% of total body weight over 68 weeks. Individual results vary based on starting weight, diet, activity level, and adherence to the programme.
What is the difference between semaglutide and Ozempic?
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in both Ozempic (approved for type 2 diabetes) and Wegovy (approved specifically for weight management). At Nursify we prescribe semaglutide for medical weight loss under the supervision of our licensed Nurse Practitioner.
What are the side effects of semaglutide?
The most common side effects are nausea, reduced appetite, and mild digestive changes particularly in the first few weeks as your body adjusts. We use a gradual dose titration protocol to minimize these effects. Most clients find side effects diminish significantly after the first month.
Is semaglutide or tirzepatide better for weight loss?
Tirzepatide generally produces greater weight loss in clinical trials (20 to 22% vs approximately 15% for semaglutide). Both are excellent options. We discuss which is right for your specific goals and health history during your consultation.
