Consult Your Healthcare Provider

Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, weight loss medication, or treatment plan. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read on this Site.

Individual Results May Vary

Weight loss results from GLP-1 medications (semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, etc.) vary significantly between individuals. Factors affecting results include:

• Starting weight and body composition
• Diet and exercise habits
• Genetic factors and metabolism
• Underlying medical conditions
• Medication dosage and adherence
• Duration of treatment

The experiences of other patients do not guarantee your results will be similar.

Prescription Medication Information

Prescription Required

GLP-1 medications including semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), and liraglutide (Saxenda, Victoza) are prescription medications that require evaluation and approval by a licensed healthcare provider. These medications are not appropriate for everyone and may have contraindications based on your medical history.

Side Effects and Risks

GLP-1 medications can cause side effects, some serious. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. Serious risks may include:

• Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas)
• Gallbladder problems
• Kidney problems
• Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
• Thyroid tumors (animal studies; risk in humans unknown)
• Allergic reactions
• Changes in vision (diabetic retinopathy complications)

Discuss all risks and benefits with your healthcare provider before starting treatment.

Compounded Medications

Some telehealth providers offer compounded versions of semaglutide and tirzepatide. Important facts about compounded medications:

• Not FDA-Approved: Compounded medications are not approved by the FDA for safety, efficacy, or quality
• Legally Manufactured: When sourced from licensed 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies, compounded medications are legal and regulated by state boards of pharmacy
• Cost vs Quality Trade-off: Compounded medications typically cost 50-70% less than brand-name versions but lack FDA oversight
• Same Active Ingredients: Compounded versions use the same active pharmaceutical ingredients (semaglutide or tirzepatide) as brand-name medications
