Tesofensine Peptide Therapy Weight Loss Doctor in Westport, Connecticut

Tesofensine peptide therapy for physician-led weight loss is offered by the triple board certified doctor and her highly trained team at the Westport, CT based Connecticut Medical Weight Loss Doctors. The FDA-approved medication is commonly prescribed as an appetite suppressant for patients seeking effective and safe weight loss solutions. Tesofensine is considered a dopamine, noradrenaline, and serotonin presynaptic reuptake inhibitor, which means patients experience less hunger pangs when the affected neurotransmitters are blocked from central nervous system reabsorption. These hormonal changes ultimately lead to individuals consuming less food during meals and craving less snacks. Studies show that Tesofensine may be linked to altering the way dopamine acts at certain pleasure centers in the brain. Men and women in generally good health with realistic weight loss goals and an interest in physician-led peptide therapy-based weight loss are typically candidates for treatment at Connecticut Medical Weight Loss Doctors (Westport, CT). 

Tesofensine is frequently utilized by overweight or obese people who desire to undergo medical weight loss treatment with the Connecticut Medical Weight Loss Doctors to aid the body’s production of hormones that inhibit hunger. The FDA-approved peptide therapy medication controls dopamine levels, as an unbalanced dopamine system can actually cause weight gain. Tesofensine blocks dopamine transporter proteins, extending the period of time after stimulation during which dopamine receptors are active and improving the brain’s reward system. Each of these transmitters has a major impact on hunger and metabolism at diverse locations throughout the brain. Dopamine (found in the forebrain) regulates hunger and the “pleasure” center. The two other transmitters function in the hypothalamus, where they increase metabolism and decrease appetite.

Tesofensine stands out from other peptide therapy based medical weight loss treatment due to its ability to be compounded with other medications. This allows our top rated medical weight loss team to create customized peptide therapy treatments that reflect each patient’s unique anatomical needs and post-treatment goals. Our triple board certified doctor and her highly trained team of weight loss experts are dedicated to actualizing weight loss goals in a long-term, healthy way at Connecticut Medical Weight Loss Doctors

During your initial Tesofensine peptide therapy consultation with the triple board certified physician at Connecticut Medical Weight Loss Doctors, you will discuss your post-treatment goals with the doctor and she will explain the medical weight loss process offered at our CT based practice. The doctor will perform a series of routine medical exams to determine your eligibility for peptide therapy based medical weight loss. You will also have the opportunity to speak with the triple board certified medical weight loss doctor one-on-one to address any questions or concerns you might have about Tesofensine peptide therapy.  

Tesofensine, a prescription weight loss peptide, works by raising the concentrations of neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the brain. Motor function, mood, reward, and motivation are all regulated by dopamine, as well as sexual and reproductive behavior. Norepinephrine enhances the contraction of the heart and skeletal muscles for the organism’s best possible performance. Serotonin controls hunger, emotion, memory, sleep, and other bodily functions.
