Weight Loss Injections Telemedicine Intake Form

Through telemedicine, Dr. Straface can offer convenient and affordable healthcare services to patients. Telemedicine is an excellent option for non-emergency situations.  Please read the below information below about weight loss injections and fill out the questionnaire with as accurate information as possible.

Please read these terms carefully and agree to the terms below.

Human-based glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) such as Semaglutude (compounded), Adlyxin®, Byetta®, Bydureon®, Ozempic®, Rybelsus®, Trulicity®, Victoza®, Wegovy® Mounjaro® are prescribed as an adjunct to a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity for chronic weight management in adults with an initial body mass index (BMI) that is considered outside a healthy range.

While using a GLP-1 RA it is highly recommended that you:

  • Eat a fibrous diet. Focus on fruits and vegetables that are high in fiber
  • Eat small high-protein meals as digestion is slowed down while on this medication
  • Avoid foods high in fat as they take longer to digest
  • Drink at least 32oz of water a day to avoid constipation

Do not take this medication if:

  • You have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (Thyroid Cancer)
  • You have a personal history of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN2)
  • You are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while taking this medicine
  • You are diabetic and taking any medications related to lowering your blood sugar levels without speaking with your endocrinologist or primary care provider. Specifically, if you are prescribed Insulin because the combination may increase your risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and dosage adjustments by your provider may be necessary.
  • You are allergic to Semaglutide or any other GLP-1 agonist such as: Adlyxin®, Byetta®, Bydureon®, Ozempic®, Rybelsus®, Trulicity®, Victoza®, Wegovy® Mounjaro® (THIS IS NOT AN ALL-INCLUSIVE LIST)

Possible drug interactions:

  • Anti-diabetic agents, specifically insulin and sulfonylureas (e.g., glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride, tolbutamide) due to the increased risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Do not take with other GLP-1 agonist medicines such as: Adlyxin®, Byetta®, Bydureon®, Ozempic®, Rybelsus®, Trulicity®, Victoza®, Wegovy® Maunjaro® (THIS IS NOT AN ALL-INCLUSIVE LIST).
  • Blood pressure medications: As weight loss may occur on this medication, it is imperative to monitor your blood pressure at home while on this medication and take blood pressure medication at the same time. Weight loss may naturally decrease your blood pressure, which may make it necessary to adjust your blood pressure medication dosage. As weight loss occurs, it is recommended to keep a blood pressure diary.

Possible side effects:

  • Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, dyspepsia, dizziness, abdominal distension, belching, hypoglycemia, flatulence, gastroenteritis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
  • Possible side effects of subcutaneous injections: itching or burning at the site of administration with or without thickening of the skin.

If you notice other side effects not listed above, contact your healthcare provider. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.

GLP-1 RA may cause other serious issues such as possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Tell your healthcare provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, Semaglutide caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if Semaglutide/ GLP-1 RA will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in people.

Report adverse side effects to your clinician. In the event of any emergency, call 911 immediately.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AS TO THE RISKS OR HAZARDS OF THIS TREATMENT, OR ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING THIS PROPOSED TREATMENT OR OTHER POSSIBLE TREATMENTS, ASK DR. STRAFACE BEFORE BEGINNING TREATMENT.

Medical Disclaimer

Patient agrees to virtual e-visit service terms, privacy policy, and charge for receiving a virtual visit from Dr. Straface at Feel Ideal 360. After reviewing your information, or during the e-visit it may be determined that your problem is too complex for an e-visit session. In that case our office will schedule you for a traditional office visit and your e-visit fee will be applied to the patient balance related to your office visit. Our physician appropriately documents the virtual e-visit, including all pertinent communication related to the encounter, in the patient’s medical/health record. The physician has a defined period of time within which responses to a virtual e-visit request are completed. During the virtual e-visit, the physician may make recommendations, provide medical advice and/or prescribe, refill or recommend medications. The physician may suggest the patient receive additional care, examination, testing and/or treatment at a medical facility in-person. If necessary, the physician may also suggest that the patient receive care in an emergency room. Communication during an e-visit may be exchanged via teleconference, landline phone, cellular phone and online chat per the State of Texas. By requesting an e-visit you acknowledge that personal health information will be communicated. A virtual e-visit may include the total interchange of online inquiries and other communications associated with this single patient encounter, subject to determination of the physician. As with any medical service, decision, or treatment, there are risks; and, an e-visit is no different. Because this visit is electronic and not in person, you acknowledge that the risk may be greater than a traditional office visit, and by requesting the visit you agree to accept the outcome-even if it is undesirable. In addition, you agree to abide by our office's routine policies including any policy related to litigation. I acknowledge I am paying for a telemedicine consult with the physician and the outcome will be based solely on the physician's medical discretion and the fee is non-refundable.


Important:

  • You may inquire with your own insurance company about reimbursement. We do not take insurance at this time.
  • The consultation fee does not include the cost of the medication prescribed. 
  • Also, if you are experiencing any technical difficulties with our automated processing form above please contact our office directly and one of our Feel Ideal 360 Team members will assist. Thank you! Phone: 972-656-1200
