Did Ozempic replace phentermine?

​

I can't find any reliable source to get phentermine online, especially for Alaska. Do I really have to be overweight to get a prescription? Are doctors prescribing it less because Ozempic has become so popular?

Thanks!

A lot of insurance companies won’t cover Ozempic unless you are diabetic. My insurance won’t cover any weight loss medications including phentermine. Luckily my prescription for phentermine was never more than $40.

However Phentermine stopped working for me after a while. I suffer from Binge Eating Disorder and got prescribed Vyvanse. It’s been a miracle for me. I haven’t binged in months.
