Zepbound is an FDA-approved brand-name medication containing tirzepatide. Tirzepatide activates GIP and GLP-1 receptors and is administered once weekly. Compounded tirzepatide is not the same product as FDA-approved Zepbound.
The initial consultation is free. A $39.99 medical care fee is charged only if Zepbound is medically appropriate and a prescription is submitted. The fee covers the medical evaluation, prescription submission, and ongoing dosing and side-effect support related to that prescription. Each additional prescription submitted requires a new $39.99 medical care fee. Medication is purchased separately through LillyDirect, and a prescription is not guaranteed.
LillyDirect prices shown on this page are cash-pay prices that are not processed through insurance. Lilly states that patients using this self-pay option agree not to seek reimbursement from an insurance plan or apply the purchase toward an insurance deductible.
The process can begin as soon as you complete your physician consultation. If Zepbound is appropriate, the prescription can be sent electronically to LillyDirect. Medication availability, pharmacy processing, payment and delivery times are controlled by the pharmacy.
Zepbound is a prescription medication and is not appropriate for every patient.

Do not use Zepbound if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid carcinoma or if you have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2.
​
Do not use Zepbound if you have had a serious allergic reaction to tirzepatide or any of its ingredients. Zepbound should not be used with another tirzepatide-containing medication or a GLP-1 receptor agonist.
​
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, indigestion, injection-site reactions, fatigue, belching, hair loss and acid reflux.
​
Serious risks may include severe gastrointestinal reactions, dehydration and kidney injury, gallbladder disease, pancreatitis, serious allergic reactions and low blood sugar, particularly when used with certain diabetes medications.
Tell your healthcare providers that you take Zepbound before surgery or deep sedation because it can delay stomach emptying. Zepbound should be discontinued when pregnancy is recognized. It may also reduce the effectiveness of oral hormonal contraceptives for four weeks after starting treatment and for four weeks after each dose increase.
