What are Compounded Weight Loss Medications?
Who Qualifies for Compounded Medications?
At Charlotte Weight Loss and Wellness Clinic, we understand that weight loss medications can be costly, especially for uninsured patients. While branded medications like Wegovy® (semaglutide) and Zepbound™ (tirzepatide) are highly effective, they may not always be financially accessible. To ensure that all our patients have access to safe and effective weight management solutions, we offer compounded versions of these medications at a more affordable cost.
Compounded medications are custom-prepared formulations made by specialized compounding pharmacies. These are not the same as generics, but they provide an alternative for patients who cannot afford commercial brands.
Our clinic partners with trusted compounding pharmacies to provide high-quality, physician-prescribed alternatives, including:
• Compounded Semaglutide – The active ingredient in Wegovy® and Ozempic®, used for appetite control and weight loss.
• Compounded Tirzepatide – The active ingredient in Zepbound™ and Mounjaro®, known for its dual action on glucose and appetite regulation.
• Oral Weight Loss Medications – Alternative non-injectable medications for patients who prefer pills.
Benefits of Compounded Medications
• More Affordable – Costs significantly less than brand-name medications.
• Same Active Ingredients – Effectiveness is comparable to branded options.
• Customizable Dosages – Tailored to your weight loss plan.
• Access for More Patients – A viable solution for those without insurance.
• Uninsured patients who cannot afford brand-name medications.
• Patients who meet BMI criteria for weight loss medications.
• Individuals who do not have contraindications to GLP-1 receptor agonists.
At Charlotte Weight Loss and Wellness Clinic, we provide personalized weight loss plans and ensure that every patient has access to safe and effective treatment options. If you’re struggling with weight loss and looking for cost-effective alternatives, schedule a consultation with our experts today!
