A personalized approach to weight loss

Not all people are eligible for weight loss medication, including GLP-1s. In the event that a prescribing clinician has determined that a patient is eligible for weight loss medication as part of the Everlywell Weight Care+ program, the patient is first offered the name-brand medication best suited for them as determined by their clinician. If it was a GLP-1 medication, in the event that it is either not available near the patient or not covered by their insurance, then the patient may be eligible for a compounded version of certain GLP-1 medications. In the event that these are not desired or not affordable, your clinician may offer alternative weight loss medications, based on your symptoms and medical history.

In the world of medication, “compounding” refers to small-scale formulations of drugs that usually differ slightly from the commercially available version. A patient may need a compounded version of a drug if they are allergic to one of the inactive ingredients in a medication, or if the medication generally comes in a form they cannot take (such as swallowing pills), or for other medical reasons. Like commercially-produced GLP-1s, compounded versions still require prescriptions from a healthcare provider. The dosages and frequencies of compounded medications are also determined by a healthcare provider to best match the medical needs of the patient.

Yes—the compounding pharmacy we work with accepts HSA/FSA cards so you can put your funds toward your Rx.

The time it takes the pharmacy to fill each individual prescription varies. Most orders are filled and shipped within 7 business days if the prescription is received by 7:00 PM CST.

If your insurance does not cover branded GLP-1 medications, the cost savings between compounded semaglutide and branded GLP-1 medications, like Ozempic®, is vast. If you qualify for compounded semaglutide your Rx cost will be $199/mo. (or per prescription refill), which does not include your monthly membership cost of $49.00/mo. for the first month and $139.00/mo. after that.
