Compounded vs. brand-name
Most online programs prescribe compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, which are significantly cheaper than brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound. Compounded medications are made by licensed pharmacies but are not identical to the FDA-approved branded products. Learn the differences →
Telehealth regulations
New York allows telehealth prescribing for GLP-1 medications. Your prescribing provider must be licensed in New York, and the dispensing pharmacy must be able to ship to your state. All programs listed above meet these requirements.
