There is no question that GLP-1 drugs are effective at helping people lose weight
For others, it may mean a different medical or behavioural approach depending on BMI, health history, current medicines, eating pattern, and previous attempts at weight reduction
For most people trying to access GLP-1 medications for weight loss, the practical choice is compounded medication through a telehealth provider at $147280/month, not brand-name through insurance
PlexusDx sources compounded semaglutide injections from licensed 503A compounding pharmacies, ensuring the same evidence-backed mechanism that powered these clinical successes
And, so far, while quality and safety inspections and enforcement typical among compounders are occurring with compounders of GLP-1 products, we have not seen evidence publicly that the FDA is taking action specifically against the practice of compounding GLP-1 products that are no longer in shortage as products that are essentially a copy of the FDA-approved products
