A deeper look inside Tirzepatide
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection that activates the GIP and GLP-1 receptors. It is the active ingredient in the brand-name medicine Zepbound.2
It lowers body weight by reducing how much you eat, likely through its effect on appetite, and it slows how quickly the stomach empties.2
If prescribed, your medication ships from a licensed pharmacy. Compounded tirzepatide is not Zepbound and is not FDA-approved.

Your first 12 weeks, step by step
This is a guide to the conversations and decisions ahead, measured from your first prescribed dose. Your clinician sets the actual schedule.
- Before dose one
Confirm your plan
Complete your intake and share your health history and current medicines. If prescribed, review the pharmacy label, injection instructions, and storage directions before using the vial.
- Weeks 1–4
Start at your prescribed dose
Take tirzepatide only as directed. Let your care team know about nausea, vomiting, or other side effects. Do not change the dose on your own.
- Weeks 5–8
Review how you feel
Your clinician may keep or adjust your dose after considering your response and tolerability. There is no required increase just because a new month begins.
- Weeks 9–12
Reassess together
Discuss progress, side effects, and whether the current treatment still fits your goals. Your next prescription remains a clinical decision.
Compounded injectables may come in different concentrations. Use only the dose and syringe instructions supplied for your prescription; ask your clinician or pharmacist if anything is unclear. Read the FDA dosing-error alert. To check the volume and syringe units for a dose, use the tirzepatide dose calculator.

What is the medical approval process like?
You pay at checkout first, then complete an online intake form. A licensed provider reviews your information within approximately 24 hours and decides whether tirzepatide is appropriate for you. If approved, your medication ships overnight. Payment does not guarantee a prescription.
What if I am not approved?
You will receive a full refund. For any other refund question, read the refund policy.
Is the medication included in the plan?
Yes, it is! If approved, your plan includes the medication, provider review, overnight shipping, and order support. No insurance is required. HSA and FSA eligible.
How does billing work?
Commit & Save plans are $39 today, then the plan's monthly price for the rest of your 3, 6 or 12-month agreement, and continue month to month after that until you cancel. Pay upfront to have the whole agreement charged today at 5% off, with no more medication charges during the plan. Month to month is $244 every month with no minimum term. Checkout shows the full payment schedule and today's charge before you pay.
What does VIP include?
Lifetime VIP is $149 once, paid with your first month. Every monthly refill on a 3, 6 or 12-month plan is then 20% off the regular price instead of the 10% member price, for as long as you stay subscribed.
How is tirzepatide dosed?
Once weekly. Doses range from 2.5 mg to 15 mg. Your provider starts low and raises the dose only as tolerated and clinically appropriate.
I already take a GLP-1. Can I keep my current dose?
Share your current medication, dose, last injection date, and prescription details with your clinician. They decide whether you can continue, need a different dose, or should use another treatment.
Will syringes be included?
The plan includes medication if prescribed and pharmacy instructions. Injection supplies have not been confirmed as a standard inclusion. Ask the pharmacy which supplies come with your prescription and which syringe matches your prescribed dose.
What is the timeline after medical approval?
Providers review intakes within approximately 24 hours. If you are prescribed tirzepatide, it ships by overnight, no-signature delivery from the pharmacy.
