[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I think the online things are not a good value. Find a primary care doc. [b]Getting a prescription is easy, [/b]getting it covered is not but the online companies don’t have any magic. A primary care doc can prescribe it to you at an annual visit which shouldn’t cost you anything, so why pay a fee to an online doctor? They’re just preying on the sense of scarcity. [/quote]

Wrong. Many (most?) primary care doctors will not just prescribe a GLP-1.  They require testing, trying other weight loss methods/programs, more testing. Sometimes you need to visit a endocrinologist. The wait time to be seen is insane.

There is a sense of scarcity, because many doctors are not comfortable or familiar with GLP1s.

Plus just to get an annual visit to my primary care doctor takes about three months.  Then you start the testing process.

Well, the testing is smart. My dad is diabetic and took Ozempic for diabetes. It caused pancreatitis--a not uncommon side effect. At a very minimum, triglycerides should be tested before starting these drugs. [/quote]

Np but pancreatitis is very scary. Beware. [/quote]
