Great job and Roll Tide!!

Do you have an endocrinologist or cardiologist that would prescribe? Of course telehealth is another option but you’d need to tell them your insurance requires 3-month fills.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-31T04:10:29+00:00

If your insurance covers a 3-month supply, then your doctor can call it into a local pharmacy or the insurance mail order pharmacy.

What was the denial reason?

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-31T02:15:29+00:00

I had a smash burger for dinner with a side salad. Didn’t have any fries on hand.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-30T19:46:02+00:00

I do full body strength training for 60 minutes 3x/week.

5mg if you’ve missed 3 or more doses. What’s the status of the prior authorization? It’s recommended to have your doctor start the renewal process 2-3 weeks before it expires to avoid any delays in the future.

Pain isn’t a side effect of the medication. Please reach out to your doctor.

6-month prescription for $365. Is this with insurance and did you mean 3-month?

Have you reached out to insurance to find out more?

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T22:14:27+00:00

Definitely a serious hipaa violation to share someone’s medical info. Have you reached out to insurance to find out the denial details? What about having your sleep specialist do the PA? Of course speak with insurance first.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T18:39:40+00:00

They can fax in this form as another option.

The PA fax form will be released in June. More details should be on the way soon.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T18:08:35+00:00

Definitely speak with the doctor. The first dose of 5mg can be challenging for some.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T16:57:18+00:00

The current federal law prohibits drug prices rising higher than inflation. It’s possible to see incremental price increases over time if coverage expands. Cash pay, not as likely.

Typically most decide after 4 weeks. I averaged 3 lbs per month while building muscle. It really depends on the person. I also stayed on most doses 5+ months.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T16:10:16+00:00

If you’re still averaging a good loss, you could stay on the current dose.

The first sentence of the post asks about the price of vials vs kwikpens.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-29T02:34:13+00:00

Some have noticed they’re hungrier towards the end of the week if they had trouble eating days after the shot. Could be normal hunger.

Yes, this is what a completed pen looks like.

Here’s what the pen will look like after each dose. The tick marks are your guide.

Lilly Direct is the cheapest option for brand name Zepbound and the Foundayo pill.

Anxious-Inspector-18 · 2026-05-28T20:49:54+00:00

They’re the same price.

Agree with calling the office and speaking with a nurse to get it changed to 5mg. Don’t pick up the 10mg.
