FAQs

OriginMeds is a telemedicine platform built to provide you with affordable medication to improve your health.

After signing on and filling out our easy questionnaire, you will be contacted by a licensed physician to determine what treatment plan is right for you. After review, the physician will send your prescription to one of our approved compounding pharmacies, who will ship a package with your customized medication directly to your home.  Everything you need to safely administer the medicine will be included in your package along with clear instructions. As you progress, our medical professionals will stay in touch with you, monitor your results, and manage your prescriptions.

OriginMeds currently offers semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy® and Ozempic®) and tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Zepbound® and Mounjaro®).

GLP-1 receptor agonists are a class of medications which mimic hormones naturally produced in your body. These medications target receptors in your brain that control your appetite. When applied, you feel less hungry. They are proven to work as an effective treatment for weight loss.

Like all medications, certain people may develop some side effects upon use.  Please read the enclosed medical instructions provided in your package for further information and discuss with your doctor.

Once the prescription is sent, it takes the pharmacy 2-3 days to compound your medicine and get it ready for shipping.  Once shipped, you will typically receive your medication in 1-2 days.  As long as you follow the prescribed dosing schedule, you will never be out of medication. Your medication is cold packed when it is sent.  Accordingly, we do not ship over the weekends.  Our shipments are sent Monday through Thursday.

As part of your monthly order, each month you will be asked a brief set of questions to track your progress.  One of our doctors will review your responses and determine if you should continue on your current course or if an adjustment is warranted. The doctor will send your refill or new prescription to the pharmacy which will ship it directly to you before your next dose. OriginMeds will automatically charge your account for the appropriate amount.
