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 Rochester Institute of Technology 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 Rochester Institute of Technology, New York

Not much. The shots use a short, thin needle (4–5 mm) injected just under the skin, and most patients describe it as a quick pinch. Your Rochester Institute of Technology provider or clinic will show you how to self-inject, rotating between the abdomen, thigh and upper arm.

Most Rochester Institute of Technology patients complete the online assessment and get provider approval within 24 hours. Medication ships in 2–3 days, so you can start your first dose within about 3–4 days. The whole process is online with licensed New York providers.

Coverage varies widely by plan in New York. Many commercial plans cover Mounjaro for diabetes and Wegovy/Zepbound for weight management with prior authorization. Medicare Part D may cover diabetes indications but generally not weight-loss use. A Rochester Institute of Technology provider can verify benefits and file prior authorization.

Both are tirzepatide from Eli Lilly. Mounjaro is approved for type 2 diabetes, Zepbound for chronic weight management. The molecule and weekly dosing are identical — only the indication differs.

Standard criteria: BMI 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia or sleep apnea. Rochester Institute of Technology providers follow FDA-guided criteria; a free assessment confirms eligibility in minutes.

Medication ships directly to your home in Rochester Institute of Technology, New York in temperature-controlled, discreet packaging, typically within 2–3 business days of approval. Needles, syringes and alcohol wipes are included.
