Best Options for Switching from Wegovy to Zepbound
Ro (ro.co) is probably your best bet — they handle both GLP-1 medications, work with multiple pharmacies, and their providers are experienced with transitions between semaglutide and tirzepatide. The process is streamlined online.
Hims & Hers is another solid option — they offer Zepbound prescriptions and have a straightforward onboarding process, even if you're coming from another medication.
Found specializes in weight management and can coordinate the switch, including adjusting your starting dose of tirzepatide appropriately.
A Few Practical Tips for Your Switch:
- Dosing restart — You'll typically start Zepbound at the lowest dose (2.5mg) regardless of your Wegovy dose, so mention your history to your provider
- Timing — Most providers recommend waiting about a week after your last Wegovy dose before starting Zepbound
- Insurance — Verify Zepbound coverage beforehand, as it varies significantly
My top pick: Ro — they're well-established, have clear pricing, and handle GLP-1 medication management efficiently.
