Where Does Your GLP-1 Medication Come From?

When you get GLP-1 medication through Weight Loss Agents, it comes from a licensed U.S. pharmacy. A licensed provider reviews the medication you chose, and if it's prescribed, a pharmacy here in the United States fills your prescription and ships it straight to your door. Nothing is mailed in from another country, and you never have to go looking for a source on your own.

Lots of people wonder about this before they start, especially with so much talk about where medications come from and how they reach patients. Here's the whole path, step by step, so you know exactly what to expect.

Who fills my prescription?

Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. pharmacy that works with Weight Loss Agents. That pharmacy prepares your order, labels it with your name and directions, and ships it to the address you give us. You don't need to find a pharmacy, call one, or transfer anything yourself.

• The pharmacy is licensed in the United States.
• Your order is prepared for you, under your name, from a real prescription.
• It ships from inside the U.S., not from overseas.

When your package arrives, the label on your medication shows your name and the directions your provider wrote for you. If anything about your order looks different from what you expected, you can message your care team and they'll sort it out with the pharmacy for you. You're never left to chase down answers on your own.

How does a prescription get to the pharmacy?

It starts with you. You take a 5-minute online assessment and choose the medication, the format and the plan you want. You can choose semaglutide from $93/mo or tirzepatide from $133/mo, in an injection or needle-free option. You can see the details of each format on our GLP-1 formats comparison page.

When you check out, your card is authorized, not charged. A licensed provider then reviews your health history and the choice you made, and either approves or declines it. You're only charged if it's approved. A few states need a live video visit before a provider can decide, and we'll let you know if yours is one of them.

Once it's approved, the prescription goes to the pharmacy electronically. That's it. No paper script to mail, no extra appointment.

Why does it matter where medication comes from?

Because you deserve to know who's preparing what you take. When your medication comes from a licensed U.S. pharmacy, you know it was filled under a real prescription from a licensed provider, and you know who to reach if you have a question about your order.

It also keeps things simple. Your assessment, your provider's decision, your pharmacy order and your shipping all live in one place, instead of being spread across different websites and phone numbers.

And because your provider and your pharmacy are connected through the same program, any change your provider approves to your plan goes straight to the pharmacy for your next order. You don't have to carry a new prescription from one place to another or start over somewhere else.

How do I keep track of my order?

Everything happens in your Patient Portal. After your order is approved, you can follow it there, send a message to your care team, and complete your check-ins. If you'd like to change your plan or have a question about your treatment, that's where you ask, too.

• See your order and its status.
• Message your care team any time.
• Complete check-ins and ask about changes to your plan.

Do I need insurance to get it?

No. You don't need insurance, and there are no membership fees. You pay for the plan you choose, and you can see live prices on our GLP-1 cost page. Many people like knowing the price up front instead of waiting on coverage decisions or employer plans.

How do I get started?

If you're ready, you can see how the program works on our weight loss medicine page, or go straight to the online assessment. You'll answer questions about your health, pick the medication, format and plan that fit you, and a licensed provider will take it from there.
