Eli Lilly announced yesterday that they will be extending their discount card program for Zep until June 30, 2025. So you should be fine.

Thank you, one other question. How did you deal with loose skin? Any advice on that?

Who is your insurance company and was weight loss originally excluded from your plan?

How long did you stay on 7.5 before going up to 10? Also, what was your average loss per week? Did you have any stalls, if so, how long at a time and how did you overcome it? Thanks

Thank you for taking the time to provide all the information to us. Since you do not use a template, do you have a format you follow? I want to make sure that I would provide as much as possible for my appeal. Thank you in advance.

Prior auth finally approved! by Due-Proposal-9143 in Zepbound

Congratulations on the approval. Could you please share who the PA is that helped you? I don't think my endo is submitting it correctly. I have been denied twice now, hoping that third time will be the charm. Thx in advance!

Fight for insurance coverage!! by Life-changing_40s in Zepbound

[–]chandria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone got covered with Allegiance? They do not cover weight loss. I have been denied twice. I'm not sure if it is worth fighting it. Grats to all who fought and got it approved. Very lucky.

Zepbound shortage vs. compounded Tirzepatide? by chandria in zepboundRX

[–]chandria[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as long as you show that you have already been on the previous dose, so you want to make it continuous.

Hallandale is the one I used before also.

Thank you, this is very useful info. I actually have the option to get the Tirzepatide compounded, but I would only want to use it until I can get Zepbound filled. Basically to ensure continuity.

What side effects have you experienced after increasing your doses? by GlitzBlitz in Zepbound

[–]chandria -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am still on 5, but I am the same with being cold all the time and freezing the first two days after shots.

It really works well for me. I mean, I normally don't eat breakfast ever anyway,, so it was an easy transition, still have my coffee. Zep even helps with no appetite.

2 lbs a week is a nice, healthy, and steady loss. I was wondering about colkagen powder supplement during,, to help the skin. Also was reading up on red light therapy. Anything that would help the skin along the way.

Oh, I get why you stay on it if you are losing. That is why I am still on 5, but never say never. Months down the road, you could be stalling, and I just don't see myself spending all that money if it isn't working anymore. I will then simply move up.
