How does Direct Meds work?
Direct Meds allows you to get prescription weight loss medications such as semaglutide & tirzepatide from the comfort of your home. The first step is to see if you qualify for GLP-1 medications by clicking on “Do I Qualify?” on our website. Once you finish the eligibility questionnaire, you will be able to choose and pay for the first month of your selected medication.* Your pricing is one simple monthly price and includes medication, supplies, doctor review and shipping. Once you’ve selected and paid for the first month of your chosen medication, you will need to complete an intake form for the doctor to review and approve your prescription. Once your doctor approves your prescription, our pharmacies will ship out your medication within 2 business days.
*If for any reason your prescription is not approved, you will receive a full refund.

How does the pricing work?
Direct Meds partners with licensed doctors and pharmacy to offer competitive pricing on compounded GLP-1 weight loss medications. Our pricing is transparent with no hidden costs or monthly fees.
For Semaglutide (same active ingredient in Ozempic®) we charge $297 per month. For Tirzepatide (same active ingredient found in Mounjaro®) we charge $497/month.
Included in this simple pricing is your medication, doctors visits (normally $99/visit), 2-day Fedex shipping, and all supplies needed for injections.
Competitors will often charge ‘access’ or membership fees. Direct Meds does not have those so that pricing is extremely clear and you don’t get surprise costs.

How much weight will I lose?
Individual weight-loss is dependent on a number of factors but on average patients using GLP-1 medications lose around 1.5% of their body weight per week. Over 12 weeks, it can be as high as 10%. This equates to a weight loss of 10–20 pounds for a 200 pound person.
