What weight loss medications can I be prescribed?

With LifeMD, getting started with effective and personalized weight loss treatment is simple. Our Weight Management Program offers a variety of prescription medications tailored to your unique health profile, goals, and insurance situation. During your evaluation, we’ll consider your medical history, biomarkers, and any preexisting conditions, along with your budget and long-term weight goals. We’ll also conduct a free insurance benefits check to determine whether GLP-1 medications are reasonably covered under your plan.

If clinically appropriate, you may be prescribed a brand name GLP-1 medication such as Wegovy® or Zepbound® (FDA-approved for weight management), or Ozempic® and Mounjaro® (FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes, with coverage typically tied to that diagnosis). Self-pay options are available for select brand name medications. LifeMD also offers a non-GLP-1 option called Triple Therapy — a combination of metformin, bupropion, and topiramate — which provides a comprehensive oral approach to weight loss.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to weight management. That’s why we’re here to help you find the right treatment for your body, your lifestyle, and your circumstances — and to support you every step of the way. If you have any questions, simply send us a message through your LifeMD patient portal.
