Here are some telehealth companies that can prescribe Ozempic or similar GLP-1 medications:
Companies That May Prescribe Ozempic
- Hims & Hers – Offers GLP-1 consultations; has also offered compounded semaglutide
- Ro (Body Program) – Well-known for weight management and GLP-1 prescriptions
- Noom Med – Combines their app-based coaching with medication prescriptions
- WeightWatchers (WeightWatchers Clinic) – Expanded into telehealth prescriptions for GLP-1s
- Found – Specializes in weight care and can prescribe GLP-1 medications
- Calibrate – Focuses on metabolic health with medication and coaching
- Sesame – Connects you with doctors who can evaluate and prescribe
Important Things to Know
- Ozempic is FDA-approved for Type 2 diabetes, not specifically weight loss (Wegovy is the weight-loss version)
- Providers will require a medical evaluation and you must qualify based on health criteria
- Insurance coverage varies significantly
- Actual availability depends on your location and medical history
Tip
Call ahead or check their websites, as formularies and availability change frequently, especially given ongoing supply issues with semaglutide.
Always consult a licensed physician to determine if it's appropriate for you.
