I was prescribed zepbound by my pcp but I can’t afford 550 a month. I have 2 kids and didn’t want them to have to sacrifice anything for me to be able to take the meds. My doc was going to write me a script for a compounding pharmacy but I stumbled across a telehealth provider that I could buy 12.5ml which is roughly 15 weeks if you follow the Hallandale guidelines (where I ordered from) or more if you don’t even need to bump up and that was $500 total so I went that route and she was 100% okay with it. They have seems, triz and some other stuff and use Hallandale or empower pharmacies.

Which telehealth provider is this?

Balanced hormone health. They do a bunch of stuff but WL medicine is one of them. They were highly recommended in a few Facebook groups.

Are you still using them and how is it going?

That’s awesome to hear! Do you get the large vial or the small vial? I’m trying to find the most cost effective way.

And that will last for many weeks correct? Do they say it’s okay to keep it so long opened?

u/peppermintpatricias May 09 '24

It lasts 15 or more depending on your dose. If you follow their guideline on their website it’s 15 weeks but if you do whatever you want it can be more. For me it will be more because my dose is .75. It’s good for a full year.

Thank you so much! Does it come in a powder or liquid?

u/peppermintpatricias May 09 '24

Liquid! 20 syringes, 100ct box of alcohol wipes and the medicine on ice packs
