GLP-1s are everywhere right now—but how do you know if name-brand or personalized options are right for you? We’re breaking it down clearly so you can feel informed, confident, and in control of your journey. Your GLP-1 plan should fit you. Let’s find your best path together.

You’ve probably seen it everywhere by now: GLP-1s are the buzziest tool in the weight loss world right now. Everyone from doctors to your cousin’s best friend is raving about them. But once you decide you’re ready, a new question pops up:
Do you go with a name-brand option like Wegovy or Mounjaro, or are personalized GLP-1s a better fit for your journey? 

Let’s break it down–honestly, clearly, and in a way that helps you feel confident in your choice.

A Quick GLP-1 Refresher

GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is a naturally occurring hormone that helps regulate blood sugar, slow down how fast food moves through your stomach, and sends fullness signals to your brain. 

GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) are synthetic versions that amplify this hormone’s power, helping reduce cravings, support weight loss, and improve blood sugar management.

The Case for Name-Brand GLP-1s

Name-brand GLP-1 medications—like Ozempic, Wegovy (semaglutide), and Mounjaro, Zepbound (tirzepatide)—are FDA-approved drugs that have undergone extensive clinical trials, ensuring standardized safety and efficacy across thousands of participants.

The Case for Personalized GLP-1s

Personalized GLP-1 medications contain the same active ingredients (semaglutide or tirzepatide) as brand-name products but are prepared in personalizing pharmacies, allowing for customized dosing, delivery methods (such as drops or gummies), and affordability.
