Fountain GLP is a telemedicine provider that offers semaglutide online, allowing certain individuals who qualify to do semaglutide injections at home. In general, to qualify for semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) drug, individuals must have a:

 

  • Body mass index (BMI) of 27 or greater, as well as a weight-related health condition, such as diabetes or high blood pressure
  • BMI of 30 or greater

Semaglutide is an ingredient found in FDA-approved medications, such as Wegovy and Ozempic. Wegovy is approved for weight loss treatment in certain individuals. Ozempic injections are FDA-approved to lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of serious conditions, such as heart attack and stroke, in certain individuals with type 2 diabetes. However, it is sometimes prescribed off-label for weight loss.

 

Fountain GLP offers Wegovy, Ozempic, as well as a custom-made semaglutide medication that includes vitamin B12 to help reduce nausea, a common side effect of this drug.

 

In this Fountain GLP review, we discuss its pros and cons, as well as the benefits and potential side effects associated with semaglutide. In addition, we compare Fountain GLP to other brands that offer GLP-1 medications through their online weight loss programs.

How much is semaglutide a month without insurance?

Fountain GLP offers an all-inclusive membership that costs $80 per week, which includes:

  • Semaglutide treatment and shipping directly to your home
  • Ability to text with your healthcare provider
  • Dose adjustments as needed
  • Follow-up labs
  • Follow-up video calls with your provider
