What to expect: dosing & side effects

GLP-1 medications are given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, starting at a low dose that your provider increases gradually over several weeks to limit side effects. Most Friendship patients self-inject at home after a short demonstration.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, decreased appetite and mild injection-site reactions — usually mild and fading over the first few weeks. Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid concerns; GLP-1s should not be used by people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Your provider reviews your full history before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions

GLP-1 treatment in Friendship, Maryland

Brand-name shots run about $1,000–$1,400/month without insurance in Friendship. Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide via telehealth starts around $199/month all-inclusive. With Maryland insurance coverage, copays can be as low as $25–$50.

Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are made by 503A/503B pharmacies regulated by state boards and the FDA, with purity independently tested. They contain the same active ingredient as the brand-name shots. Your Friendship provider monitors your progress and adjusts your dose.

Clinical trials show tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) produces greater average weight loss (up to ~22.5% of body weight) than semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy, ~15–17%). Tirzepatide activates two receptors (GLP-1 and GIP) versus one for semaglutide. Both are highly effective; your Friendship provider helps choose based on your history and goals.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, decreased appetite and mild injection-site reactions — usually mild and fading over the first few weeks as the dose increases. Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid concerns. Your Friendship provider starts you low and monitors progress.

No. Friendship telehealth providers offer cash-pay compounded options with a free online consultation, and HSA/FSA cards are accepted. Insurance is applied when available to further reduce your cost.

Compounded GLP-1s are prepared by 503A/503B pharmacies regulated by state boards and the FDA, with purity independently tested. They contain the same active ingredient as the brand-name drugs. Your Friendship provider monitors your progress and adjusts your protocol as needed.
