[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was on Ozempic for a while and lost weight but have gained it all back. I want to go back on it again and but my PCP wants to get the ok from a GI doctor before prescribing for various reasons. A previous GI doctor said Ozempic was OK for me to take, but this new PCP wants an updated OK. My insurance requires a step approach before prescribing and my appointment isn’t until the end of July with the GI doctor. I have to see the GI doctor regardless of whether I am going on Ozempic or not.

I am thinking about setting up an appointment with an online compounding pharmacy and just getting on it outside of insurance just so I can get started. Compounding will run around $300/month. Once insurance kicks in, Ozempic will be $25/month, if approved. If GI doc, etc. approves and I get through the step approach to get Ozempic, then I can start ordering through them, but I don’t know how it will work if I’m at a higher does through the compounding pharmacy.

I am planning on being on semaglutide for good this time. Do you think I should just wait and go through insurance and regular doctor channels or just get going with the online compounding pharmacies?[/quote]
Is getting an internet prescription and acquiring the compound this easy?[/quote]
