We hope your spring season is filled with sunshine and daylight. Compounded GLP-1 medication remains in the spotlight with a recent lawsuit filed by the manufacturer of tirzepatide against two large compounding pharmacies. Several patient specific GLP-1 pharmacies are still available for those who require additives to offset fatigue and muscle loss while on GLP-1 weight loss medication. We also offer manufacturer direct prescriptions for Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide).
Due to limited supply we will no longer be offering multi-month discounts for compounded GLP-1 medication effective May 1st, 2025.
As existing inventory changes, we are dedicated to continuing to provide your medication though the manufacturer may change. Your medication will always come in the correct milligram dose but it may be in a different size or color. The units injected may also change based on the concentration of the medication. Please double check your prescription for administration directions.
We are excited to share highlights from our latest blog posts, designed to support and inform your wellness journey:
