    This was never a discipline or willpower problem.

    Our clinicians understand the havoc wreaked by overnight shifts, interrupted sleep and meals that do not happen at normal hours. Here's how GLP-1s can help.

    01

    Appetite that finally quiets down

    GLP-1 medication slows gastric emptying and reduces food noise, so a 3 a.m. call doesn't end at the drive-through.

    Medication

    Tirzepatide or Semaglutide

    Two proven GLP-1 options — your provider helps you pick the right fit.

    Monitoring

    Ongoing provider check-ins

    Dose adjustments and side-effect support through secure messaging.

    Delivery

    At your doorstep in under a week

    UPS Next Day Air included with every order.

    Common questions

    The most common side effects are GI-related – nausea, constipation, diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort – and they often improve over time. We start low and increase doses gradually to help minimize side effects. Rare but serious risks have been reported, including pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, and kidney injury. GLP-1s also carry a thyroid C-cell tumor warning based on animal studies (avoid if you or your family has MTC or MEN2). Tell your care team before surgery/anesthesia, since GLP-1s can slow gastric emptying. Review Important Safety Information for full details.

    Both medications are administered once weekly via a simple subcutaneous injection. We provide complete training and supplies so you feel confident with the process. Most patients find it much easier than expected.

    Tirzepatide is typically suitable for adults seeking substantial weight loss, especially if your BMI is over 27 with weight-related conditions or over 30. It's not recommended for people with a history of medullary thyroid cancer, pancreatitis or severe gastrointestinal disease.

    Clinical trials show weight-loss of up to 20.9% over 72 weeks. Most users notice reduced appetite and cravings within the first few weeks, with steady weight loss thereafter. It's important to note that compounded medications should not be presumed equivalent to their branded counterparts, and they are not reviewed by the FDA for safety or effectiveness.

    Semaglutide is suited for adults seeking proven weight-loss results at a lower price point. It's generally recommended for people with a BMI over 27 (with weight-related conditions) or over 30, but not for those with certain thyroid cancers or severe gastrointestinal issues.
