FAQ
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that works by slowing gastric emptying, reducing appetite, and improving insulin sensitivity. Tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist — it targets two incretin pathways simultaneously, which generally produces stronger appetite suppression and greater average weight loss. In clinical trials, semaglutide averaged 15–17% body weight reduction; tirzepatide averaged 20–22%. Your licensed provider will recommend the most appropriate option based on your individual health profile.
The active pharmaceutical ingredients (semaglutide, tirzepatide) are FDA-approved in brand-name form. However, the compounded formulations dispensed through Open Water Rx's pharmacy partners are compounded medications — not FDA-approved finished drug products. They are prepared by licensed, FDA-registered compounding pharmacies for individual patients when a licensed provider determines there is a valid clinical reason.
Eligibility is determined by an independent licensed medical provider based on your individual health profile. Generally, GLP-1 programs are appropriate for adults with a BMI of 30+ (obese), or 27+ (overweight) with at least one weight-related health condition. A licensed provider reviews every case and prescribes only when clinically appropriate. Not all patients qualify.
Compounded semaglutide programs start from $249/month. Compounded tirzepatide programs start from $339/month. Pricing includes the medication, provider review, and shipping when prescribed. There are no hidden fees. Everything is disclosed before you pay.

Some patients may be interested in lower-dose GLP-1 treatment based on tolerability, goals, or provider guidance. Dosing decisions are always made by an independent licensed provider after reviewing your health history, medications, and risk factors. Lower-dose GLP-1 treatment may be considered when clinically appropriate. It is not suitable for everyone, and results vary.
