What is a GLP-1 medication? +
GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) medications are a class of prescription treatments originally developed for diabetes but now widely used for weight management. They work by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar, slow digestion, and reduce appetite—making it easier to control portion sizes and lose weight safely.
Which medications do you offer? +
Our licensed providers may prescribe semaglutide (brand examples: Wegovy®, Ozempic®) or tirzepatide (brand example: Mounjaro®), depending on your health profile, goals, and medication availability. All prescriptions are based on a provider’s evaluation and medical appropriateness.
How does the online process work? +
1. Complete your medical intake form online.
2. Meet with a licensed provider via telehealth consultation.
3. Receive your personalized treatment plan (if medically approved).
4. Medication is shipped directly to your door from a licensed U.S. pharmacy.
5. Ongoing support is provided through monthly check-ins and messaging access
Who is eligible for GLP-1 therapy? +
Most adults with:
• A BMI of 30 or higher, or
• A BMI of 27+ with at least one weight-related condition (such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or pre-diabetes).
Your provider will review your medical history to determine if GLP-1 therapy is right for you.
What kind of results can I expect? +
While results vary, clinical studies have shown average weight loss of 10–20% of body weight over 6–12 months with proper dosing, nutrition, and lifestyle support. Your provider will tailor your plan for safe, gradual, and sustainable progress.
Are GLP-1 medications safe? +
Yes. When prescribed and monitored by a licensed provider, GLP-1 medications are considered safe and well-tolerated. Common side effects include mild nausea, constipation, or fatigue, which often improve as your body adjusts. Serious side effects are rare but will be reviewed with you prior to treatment.
How is the medication taken? +
Most GLP-1 medications are administered as a small, once-weekly injection under the skin (similar to an insulin pen). Our providers offer easy step-by-step instructions and ongoing support for proper administration.
Do I need to follow a diet or exercise plan? +
While GLP-1 medications help control appetite, combining them with healthy nutrition and moderate physical activity produces the best results. Your provider may offer lifestyle guidance or connect you with nutrition and coaching resources to support your success.
How soon will I start seeing results? +
Many patients notice appetite changes within the first 2–4 weeks, with visible weight loss typically appearing within the first 4–8 weeks. Long-term success depends on consistency, dose titration, and following your provider’s recommendations.
How much does the program cost? +
Program pricing varies depending on your treatment plan, medication type, and whether you choose compounded or brand-name medications. Transparent pricing is provided after your consultation—there are no hidden fees. Most plans include provider visits, prescription, medication, and follow-up care.
Are the medications compounded or brand-name? +
We offer both FDA-approved brand-name medications and compounded GLP-1 formulations through licensed U.S. compounding pharmacies that comply with FDA and state regulations. Your provider will explain all options and ensure quality and safety standards are met.
Is this service available in all states? +
Our telemedicine services are available in all 50 sU.S. states, subject to each state’s telehealth and prescribing regulations. When you sign up, you’ll automatically be connected with a licensed provider in your state (if available).
How do refills and follow-ups work? +
Before each refill, your provider will review your progress, adjust your dose if necessary, and ensure continued safety and effectiveness. Monthly or quarterly check-ins help you stay on track and optimize your results.
What if I experience side effects or want to stop treatment? +
Contact your provider through the patient portal or telemedicine platform immediately if you experience side effects or wish to stop treatment. Your provider can guide you on how to taper safely or switch to another therapy if needed.
Is GLP-1 therapy permanent? +
GLP-1 therapy helps you reach a healthier weight and metabolic balance. Many patients transition to maintenance programs after achieving their goals. Long-term results are best sustained with continued healthy habits and provider guidance.
Is this covered by insurance? +
Most insurance plans do not currently cover weight-management GLP-1 prescriptions through telemedicine. However, we keep our prices competitive and transparent, often at a lower cost than in-office visits.
What makes your service different from others? +
We focus on personalized, medically supervised care with:
• Licensed U.S. providers experienced in metabolic and weight management.
• Safe, high-quality pharmacy partners.
• Concierge support and flexible online scheduling.
• Long-term coaching to sustain results beyond the medication.
