Compounded medications are prepared by state-licensed pharmacies and are not FDA-approved as finished products. A licensed provider decides whether treatment is appropriate for you.

You did the work

You did everything right. The scale still didn’t move.

You counted every calorie and tracked every step — and barely anything to show for it. If willpower could have done it, it would have by now. Hunger runs on hormone signals, not character — and GLP-1 medication works directly on those signals, so for the first time, it isn’t a fight.

It was never about willpower.

GLP-1 medication works on the gut-hormone signals that control appetite — telling your brain you’re full and slowing how fast your stomach empties. Many patients describe the same thing: the food noise finally goes quiet.

The results

Patients choose StaveMD because the medicine works.

The GLP-1 medication our licensed providers prescribe has been studied in some of the largest weight-loss trials ever run. On average, here’s what those trials found.

15–22%

of body weight lost, on average

What patients lost over about a year and a half in the trials — semaglutide ~15%, tirzepatide up to ~22.5%.

~48 lbs

lighter, on average

Average loss for patients on higher-dose tirzepatide.

~8 in

off the waist — real sizes, real clothes

Average waist reduction at the higher dose.

1 in 3

lost a fifth of their body weight

One in three trial participants lost 20% of their weight or more.

9 in 10

kept the weight off

Of patients who stayed on treatment, 9 in 10 were still holding onto at least 80% of their loss a full year later.

Common questions

Everything you're wondering about

Straight answers — no marketing spin.

Is this the same GLP-1 as Ozempic and Wegovy?

Same active ingredient — not the same product. Your provider prescribes compounded semaglutide (the GLP-1 in Ozempic® and Wegovy®) or compounded tirzepatide (the GLP-1 in Zepbound® and Mounjaro®), prepared for you by a licensed compounding pharmacy. It's a compounded medication, not the branded drug, and not FDA-approved as a finished product.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $179/month, and provider review, medication, shipping, and ongoing support are always included — your dose never changes your price. Your exact price depends on the plan length and the medication your provider prescribes — it's shown in full at checkout. No membership, “platform,” or “clinical” fees, and no insurance required. Cancel from your account anytime.

Is compounded medication real, or is it watered-down?

Compounded isn't counterfeit. A licensed compounding pharmacy prepares it from a GLP-1 active ingredient that meets USP quality standards, prescribed for you specifically — a long-standing, legal pharmacy practice. The honest tradeoff: compounded medications aren't FDA-approved, so the FDA doesn't review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality the way it does the branded drugs. Your provider decides whether it's appropriate for you.

Is it safe? What are the side effects?

The most common side effects are gastrointestinal — nausea, constipation, diarrhea, bloating — usually around dose changes and often easing over time. Less common: fatigue, headache, dizziness, or injection-site reactions. Your provider reviews your history and raises your dose gradually to help tolerance. Because compounded medication isn't FDA-reviewed, its risk and side-effect profile may differ from the branded product. Share your full health history, and seek medical care for any serious symptoms.

I've tried every diet and nothing worked. Why would this be different?

Because it isn't about willpower. GLP-1 medication works on the biology underneath hunger — the appetite signaling and constant “food noise” that diets never touch. A different mechanism, not more discipline. It doesn't work for everyone, and a provider decides whether it's appropriate — but for many people, quieting the food noise is what finally makes the difference. Individual results vary.

Can I cancel, and what if it's not right for me?

Cancel from your account anytime — no phone call required. If a provider decides the program isn't a fit, you're not charged for medication. And your care team stays reachable the whole way through — ongoing support, not a faceless subscription.
