What medical history should I share?
Tell your provider about all medical conditions, medications, supplements, pregnancy or plans for pregnancy, previous pancreatitis or gallbladder disease, kidney problems, severe gastrointestinal symptoms, diabetes treatment, and any relevant personal or family history.

Results vary based on the treatment, starting health, duration, lifestyle, adherence, tolerability, and follow-up. Vivagen does not guarantee a specific number of pounds or percentage of body weight.

Medical Weight Loss FAQs
What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a clinician-guided approach that may include health assessment, nutrition and activity guidance, prescription medication when appropriate, and scheduled follow-up. It differs from a general diet program because treatment decisions are based on the individual’s medical history, current medications, health goals, safety considerations and response over time.
Who is a candidate for medical weight loss?
Candidacy depends on the individual and the treatment being considered. Adults with overweight or obesity, weight-related health concerns, repeated weight regain or difficulty sustaining progress may benefit from an evaluation. A consultation does not guarantee medication; the provider must first review health history, current medications, risks and treatment requirements.
Do I need medication to join a medical weight loss program?
No. Medication is one possible tool, not the entire program and not the right choice for everyone. A personalized plan may focus on nutrition, activity, sleep, routines, follow-up or management of contributing health concerns. Prescription treatment is considered only when clinically appropriate.
Will I need blood tests before starting?
Laboratory testing may be recommended based on your health history, symptoms, current medications and the treatment being considered. Not every patient needs the same tests. Your provider will explain which tests, if any, are appropriate and how the results affect treatment decisions.
Can I receive medical weight loss care virtually in Florida?
Virtual appointments may be available to eligible Florida patients. The provider must still complete an appropriate evaluation and follow applicable clinical and prescribing requirements. Some patients may need in-person assessment, measurements, laboratory testing or a different care format based on medical needs.
How much does the program cost?
Costs can vary based on the consultation, laboratory testing, treatment selected, medication, follow-up frequency and other care needs. Contact Vivagen Health for current pricing and a clear explanation of what is included before starting.
