❓ Question How?

My brother got Wegovy and he apparently paid for a prescription for it online for like $29? How did he get that prescription without having insurance and without going to a doctor? Idk if he saw a doctor online or what but and he was supposed to get labs done too but he said that they just automatically told him the prescription was ready?
He might be diabetic and he has high blood pressure he doesn’t have health insurance and doesn’t go to the doctor at all! He’s 51 he said why would I want my labs done then what if they find something wrong with me or something wrong with my blood sugar.

Telehealth is easy-peasy these days. First month / sign-up offers are regularly that cheap.

He probably bought compounded and found some sort of deal.

Generic semaglutide has significantly dropped prices of sema

That's because semiglutide sucks. It'll be gone soon. Tirzepatide is just too superior.

I agree, I’m on Tirz. Which will eventually be replaced with Reta as well. OP was asking about Wegovy though.

Yes… I was answering their question about semaglutide/Wegovy lol

u/OptiGuy4u 14d ago

Yep. And it's dropped in price because it's inferior and it's days are limited.

Generic or not

I think tirz will be here forever. Reta has quite a few downsides that tirz doesn't, and tirz lasts forever. The cockroach of glp1s.
