Jamie lost 43 lbs in 5 months

“I started at 222 pounds in April and now here we are in August and I am down over 40 pounds... I can't remember ever being this low. It's motivating me to do more things, like go to the gym and eat healthy. I swim a little bit more with the kids. It just gives me confidence. Which has been amazing. I'm so lucky to have found Eden.”

They are eligible to prescribe GLP-1 drugs with semaglutide or tirzepatide as active ingredients, as well as compounded medications including drugs such as acarbose, orlistat, naltrexone, and others if determined medically appropriate. Note: Compounded medications are prepared based on specific patient needs and are not reviewed or approved by the FDA for safety or effectiveness. Prescription required. Results may vary.

Do you take insurance?

What if I'm pregnant and breastfeeding, or planning to get pregnant?

It's always important to discuss any and all of the medications you're taking or planning to take with your doctor to ensure safety. Consult with your doctor before starting or stopping any medication.

Compounded Semaglutide

*Compounded medications may be prescribed by physicians but have not been FDA regulated for safety, effectiveness, or quality. FDA-approved medicines containing semaglutide are available.

WARNING

Please contact your doctor ASAP and seek in-person care immediately if a side effect becomes problematic or you experience:

  • Severe nausea and/or vomiting resulting in dehydration—it is important to stay well hydrated and drink plenty of fluids while on this medication
    Kidney problems/kidney failure - vomiting, nausea, diarrhea can cause dehydration and kidney issues and make kidney problems worse in individuals who have pre-existing kidney conditions; may sometimes lead to the need for hemodialysis
  • Thyroid C-Cell Tumor: Trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in your neck, or shortness of breath (see black box warning below)
  • Pancreatitis: Severe pain in your abdomen or back that will not go away
  • Acute gallbladder disease - Pain in the middle or right upper stomach, fever, white parts of your eyes turn yellow or skin turns yellow, nausea/vomiting. If gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder is suspected further studies are needed.
  • Hepatitis/Elevated liver enzymes/Jaundice
  • Diabetic retinopathy problems: Changes in vision in those with type II diabetes, particularly vision problems may worsen in those with a history of diabetic retinopathy
  • Severe gastrointestinal disease - may cause gastrointestinal disease; do not use if you have a history of severe gastrointestinal disease
  • Signs of low blood sugar (for example, dizziness, weakness, shakiness, jitteriness, headache, anxiety/mood changes, rapid heartbeat, confusion, slurred speech, sweating, or lightheadedness). While this is rare with GLP-1s, if it occurs, please seek in-person care immediately. If you have these symptoms, try having liquid or food containing sugar (around 15-20 grams) —drinking juice, having regular soda, or eating some hard candies right away, as this will help raise your blood sugar quickly. If taken with insulin or an insulin secretagogue (i.e. sulfonylurea such as Glipizide, glimepiride, and glyburide) it is best to talk to your healthcare provider about possibly lowering the dose of these medications to lower the risk of hypoglycemia.
  • Increasing heart rate
  • Worsening depression, behavior changes, or suicidality

Never share the semaglutide with other people

Drug Interactions

As with other medications, compounded semaglutide can interact with alcohol and certain prescription and non-prescription medications and herbal products. The risk of hypoglycemia is increased when combined with insulin or insulin secretagogues such as sulfonylureas. Compounded semaglutide delays gastric emptying and may impact the absorption of oral medications. If you are on papillary hormone medication, prior to starting compounded semaglutide, please review the timing of taking your papillary hormone medication with the doctor who prescribes it as it may need to be adjusted. The drug levels of medications with narrow therapeutic windows (ie warfarin) should be monitored closely while on compounded semaglutide.

Please consult the pharmaceutical packaging for a full list of side effects, warnings, interactions and additional information.

To report suspected adverse reactions to compounded semaglutide, contact the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

In case of emergencies, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

BLACK BOX WARNING

GLP-1s are contraindicated in individuals with a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, a family history of such, or in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. Do not take them if you have ever had thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, GLP-1s caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer; it is not known if they will cause thyroid tumors or cancer in humans. Please notify your doctor ASAP if you develop trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in your neck, or shortness of breath.

If you experience a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Tell your healthcare provider about your medical history prior to taking semaglutide.

Avoid alcohol while taking this medication. If you’re taking diabetes medications, please discuss this with your prescribing doctor before starting semaglutide, as your diabetes medications may need to be adjusted as you lose weight.

Use adequate contraception while taking this medication. Do not take this medication if pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breastfeeding. If you plan to become pregnant, this medication needs to be stopped at least 2 months before trying. This medication may cause fetal harm.

Notify your doctor if you have kidney, liver, or pancreas problems.

Stop using semaglutide and call your healthcare provider immediately if you have severe stomach or abdomen pain that will not go away, with or without vomiting.

Stop using semaglutide and get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat; problems breathing or swallowing; severe rash or itching; fainting or feeling dizzy; or very rapid heartbeat.

Compounded Semaglutide

*Compounded medications may be prescribed by physicians but have not been FDA regulated for safety, effectiveness, or quality. FDA-approved medicines containing semaglutide are available.

WARNING

Please contact your doctor ASAP and seek in-person care immediately if a side effect becomes problematic or you experience:

  • Severe nausea and/or vomiting resulting in dehydration—it is important to stay well hydrated and drink plenty of fluids while on this medication
    Kidney problems/kidney failure - vomiting, nausea, diarrhea can cause dehydration and kidney issues and make kidney problems worse in individuals who have pre-existing kidney conditions; may sometimes lead to the need for hemodialysis
  • Thyroid C-Cell Tumor: Trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in your neck, or shortness of breath (see black box warning below)
  • Pancreatitis: Severe pain in your abdomen or back that will not go away
  • Acute gallbladder disease - Pain in the middle or right upper stomach, fever, white parts of your eyes turn yellow or skin turns yellow, nausea/vomiting. If gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder is suspected further studies are needed.
  • Hepatitis/Elevated liver enzymes/Jaundice
  • Diabetic retinopathy problems: Changes in vision in those with type II diabetes, particularly vision problems may worsen in those with a history of diabetic retinopathy
  • Severe gastrointestinal disease - may cause gastrointestinal disease; do not use if you have a history of severe gastrointestinal disease
  • Signs of low blood sugar (for example, dizziness, weakness, shakiness, jitteriness, headache, anxiety/mood changes, rapid heartbeat, confusion, slurred speech, sweating, or lightheadedness). While this is rare with GLP-1s, if it occurs, please seek in-person care immediately. If you have these symptoms, try having liquid or food containing sugar (around 15-20 grams) —drinking juice, having regular soda, or eating some hard candies right away, as this will help raise your blood sugar quickly. If taken with insulin or an insulin secretagogue (i.e. sulfonylurea such as Glipizide, glimepiride, and glyburide) it is best to talk to your healthcare provider about possibly lowering the dose of these medications to lower the risk of hypoglycemia.
  • Increasing heart rate
  • Worsening depression, behavior changes, or suicidality

Never share the semaglutide with other people

Drug Interactions

As with other medications, compounded semaglutide can interact with alcohol and certain prescription and non-prescription medications and herbal products.

Methylene Blue

BLACK BOX WARNING

WARNING: SEROTONIN SYNDROME WITH CONCOMITANT USE OF SEROTONERGIC DRUGS Methylene blue may cause serious or fatal serotonergic syndrome when used in combination with serotonergic drugs.

  • Serotonin Syndrome Risk:
    • Mechanism: Methylene blue can inhibit the enzyme monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A), which is responsible for breaking down serotonin. In patients taking medications that increase serotonin levels (such as
      SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants, and other serotonergic drugs), the additional inhibition of serotonin metabolism by methylene blue can lead to serotonin syndrome.
    • Symptoms of serotonin syndrome:
      • Agitation or restlessness
      • Confusion
      • Rapid heart rate
      • High blood pressure
      • Dilated pupils
      • Loss of muscle coordination or twitching muscles
      • Muscle rigidity
      • Heavy sweating
      • Diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting
      • Severe cases may lead to high fever, seizures, or loss of consciousness.
  • Contraindications:
    • Methylene blue is contraindicated in patients who are on serotonergic drugs unless it is an emergency situation where the benefits outweigh the risks, and proper monitoring for serotonin syndrome can be done.
  • Special Considerations:
    • It is advised to discontinue serotonergic medications 2 weeks before dministering methylene blue if possible, and monitoring is essential if it must be given.

This black box warning is critical to ensure patient safety, particularly in avoiding life-threatening serotonin syndrome in vulnerable populations.

Common side effects:

The side effects of low-dose methylene blue are generally mild, but can include several notable adverse reactions.

  • Headache
  • Blue/green urine or other bodily secretions
  • Hhypokalemia (lowpotassium levels)
  • Diarrhea
  • Hypomagnesemia (low magnesium levels)
  • Myoclonus (sudden, brief, involuntary muscle contractions/jerks)
  • Nausea
  • Seizure-like phenomena.

Other potential side effects include hemolytic anemia, particularly in individuals with G6PD deficiency, and various gastrointestinal and respiratory symptoms such as abdominal pain, dry mouth, and nasal congestion. Additionally, methylene blue can interfere with in-vivo monitoring devices and laboratory tests, which is an important consideration for patients undergoing regular medical evaluations

Contraindications:

Do not use methylene blue if you have G6PD deficiency, or if you use of SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, or ADHD stimulants. You should also avoid this medication if you have hypersensitivity to methylene blue or its components.

Storage:

Regular monitoring of serotonin levels is required for patients on certain antidepressants. Patients should also avoid excessive exposure to light, as methylene blue is photosensitizing.

Precautions:

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not freeze.

Orlistat

  • back pain
  • difficulty with moving
  • gas with leaky bowel movements
  • inability to hold bowel movement
  • increases in bowel movements
  • loss of bowel control

Special Considerations

Low Dose Naltrexone

You must stop taking low dose naltrexone at least 48 hours prior to any procedure that requires sedation. Ensure that your doctor knows that you are taking LDN prior to the procedure. It is recommended not to resume taking LDN until 48 hour after your last dose of medication that was 

prescribed for the procedure.It is important to notify your doctor if you are taking any thyroid medication. LDN may impact your thyroid levels. Stop taking LDN and notify your prescriber if you have any signs or symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as excess sweating,  fast heart rate, hyperactivity, issues with sleeping, or restlessness.

Orlistat

Because orlistat may decrease the amount of some vitamins that your body absorbs from food, you will need to take a multivitamin supplement once a day. Take the vitamin supplement at least 2 hours before or after taking orlistat. 

You may also take your multivitamin supplement at bedtime.

When using orlistat, your diet should contain no more than 30% of calories as fat. More fat in your diet will increase the side effects of this medicine. Your diet should be nutritionally balanced, and your daily intake of fat, carbohydrates, and protein should be distributed over three main meals.

Carefully follow your doctor's instructions for a reduced-calorie diet plan and regular exercise. Talk with your doctor before starting any exercise program.

WARNING

Please contact your doctor ASAP and seek in-person care immediately if a side effect becomes problematic or you experience:

  • Severe nausea and/or vomiting resulting in dehydration—it is important to stay well hydrated and drink plenty of fluids while on this medication
  • Kidney problems/kidney failure - vomiting, nausea, diarrhea can cause dehydration and kidney issues and make kidney problems worse in individuals who have pre-existing kidney conditions; may sometimes lead to the need for hemodialysis
    papillary C-Cell Tumor: Trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in your neck, or shortness of breath (see black box warning below)
  • Pancreatitis: Severe pain in your abdomen or back that will not go away
  • Acute gallbladder disease - Pain in the middle or right upper stomach, fever, white parts of your eyes turn yellow or skin turns yellow, nausea/vomiting. If gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder is suspected further studies are needed.
  • Hepatitis/Elevated liver enzymes/Jaundice
  • Diabetic retinopathy problems: Changes in vision in those with type II diabetes, particularly vision problems may worsen in those with a history of diabetic retinopathy
  • Severe gastrointestinal disease - may cause gastrointestinal disease; do not use if you have a history of severe gastrointestinal disease
  • Signs of low blood sugar (for example, dizziness, weakness, shakiness, jitteriness, headache, anxiety/mood changes, rapid heartbeat, confusion, slurred speech, sweating, or lightheadedness). While this is rare with GLP-1s, if it occurs, please seek in-person care immediately. If you have these symptoms, try having liquid or food containing sugar (around 15-20 grams) —drinking juice, having regular soda, or eating some hard candies right away, as this will help raise your blood sugar quickly. If taken with insulin or an insulin secretagogue (i.e. sulfonylurea such as Glipizide, glimepiride, and glyburide) it is best to talk to your healthcare provider about possibly lowering the dose of these medications to lower the risk of hypoglycemia.
  • Increasing heart rate
  • Worsening depression, behavior changes, or suicidality

Never share the semaglutide with other people

DRUG INTERACTIONS

As with other medications, compounded semaglutide can interact with alcohol and certain prescription and non-prescription medications and herbal products.

Zepbound™ Safety Information:

Zepbound™ (ZEHP-bownd) is an injectable prescription medicine that may help adults with obesity, or with excess weight (overweight) who also have weight-related medical problems, lose weight and keep it off. It should be used with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Zepbound™ contains tirzepatide and should not be used with other tirzepatide-containing products or any GLP-1 receptor agonist medicines. It is not known if Zepbound is safe and effective when taken with other prescription, over-the-counter, or herbal weight loss products. It is not known if Zepbound can be used in people who have had pancreatitis. It is not known if Zepbound is safe and effective for use in children under 18 years of age.

Warning

Zepbound™ may cause tumors in the thyroid, including thyroid cancer. Watch for possible symptoms, such as a lump or swelling in the neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your healthcare provider.

  • Do not use Zepbound if you or any of your family have ever had a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).
  • Do not use Zepbound if you have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
  • Do not use Zepbound if you have had a serious allergic reaction to tirzepatide or any of the ingredients in Zepbound.

Zepbound™ may cause serious side effects, including:

  • Severe stomach problems. Stomach problems, sometimes severe, have been reported in people who use Zepbound. Tell your healthcare provider if you have stomach problems that are severe or will not go away.
  • Kidney problems (kidney failure). Diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting may cause a loss of fluids (dehydration), which may cause kidney problems. It is important for you to drink fluids to help reduce your chance of dehydration.
  • Gallbladder problems. Gallbladder problems have happened in some people who use Zepbound. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get symptoms of gallbladder problems, which may include pain in your upper stomach (abdomen), fever, yellowing of skin or eyes (jaundice), or clay-colored stools.
  • Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). Stop using Zepbound and call your healthcare provider right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area (abdomen) that will not go away, with or without vomiting. You may feel the pain from your abdomen to your back.
  • Serious allergic reactions. Stop using Zepbound and get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including swelling of your face, lips, tongue or throat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching, fainting or feeling dizzy, or very rapid heartbeat.
  • Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your risk for getting low blood sugar may be higher if you use Zepbound with medicines that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea or insulin. Signs and symptoms of low blood sugar may include dizziness or light-headedness, sweating, confusion or drowsiness, headache, blurred vision, slurred speech, shakiness, fast heartbeat, anxiety, irritability, mood changes, hunger, weakness or feeling jittery.
  • Changes in vision in patients with type 2 diabetes. Tell your healthcare provider if you have changes in vision during treatment with Zepbound.

  • skin swelling and redness
  • hives
  • itching
  • rash
  • fever
  • trouble breathing or chest tightness
  • blistering or peeling skin
  • swelling of your mouth, face, lips, tongue, or throat

Don’t take this drug again if you’ve ever had an allergic reaction to it. Taking it again could be fatal.

ALCOHOL INTERACTION WARNING

Alcohol can affect your blood sugar level. It can both increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) as well as increase your blood sugar levels by serving as an additional source of carbohydrates. Talk with your doctor before drinking alcohol.

WARNINGS FOR PEOPLE WITH CERTAIN HEALTH CONDITIONS

For people with diabetic ketoacidosis: Don’t take this medication if you have diabetic ketoacidosis. Diabetic ketoacidosis is a serious condition that can result in unconsciousness and potentially death. Symptoms of this condition develop slowly. They include dry mouth or being very thirsty, high blood sugar levels, and urinating frequently. If you begin vomiting and suspect you have this condition, call your doctor or go to the hospital immediately. This condition can become life-threatening within a few hours once you’re vomiting.

For people with cirrhosis or liver disease: Don’t take acarbose if you have cirrhosis or severe liver disease. Taking acarbose could make your condition worse.

For people with intestinal disease: If you have certain intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, colonic ulceration, or partial intestinal obstruction, or if you’re predisposed to intestinal obstruction, you shouldn’t take acarbose. Taking it could make your condition worse.

For people who take insulin or a sulfonylurea: When acarbose is taken with these other drugs, it may increase your risk for developing low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Signs of hypoglycemia may include fast heart rate, confusion, hunger, sweating, shaking, or feeling weak and dizzy. Use glucose tablets or liquid glucose to help manage a hypoglycemic event while taking acarbose. Cane sugar (sucrose) won’t work to treat your hypoglycemia while you’re taking acarbose. Use oral glucose (dextrose) products instead.

WARNINGS FOR OTHER GROUPS

For pregnant women: Acarbose is a pregnancy category B drug. That means two things:

  1. Studies of the drug in pregnant animals have not shown risk to the fetus.
  2. There aren’t enough studies done in pregnant women to show the drug poses a risk to the fetus.

Tell your doctor if you’re pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Acarbose should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.

For women who are breastfeeding: Research on lactating rats has shown small amounts of acarbose in the rat milk. It isn’t known if acarbose passes through human breast milk. You and your doctor should decide if you’ll take acarbose or breastfeed.

For children: The safety and effectiveness of acarbose in people younger than 18 years haven’t been proved.

SIDE EFFECTS

Acarbose does not cause drowsiness, but it can cause other side effects.

MORE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS

The more common side effects from using acarbose include:

  • stomach pain
  • diarrhea
  • flatulence (gas)

These side effects usually develop during the first few weeks after taking acarbose. They should decrease as you continue to take the medication, typically within a few days or a couple of weeks. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if they’re more severe or don’t go away.

SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS

Call your doctor right away if you have serious side effects. Call 911 if your symptoms feel life-threatening or if you think you’re having a medical emergency. Serious side effects and their symptoms can include the following:

Allergic skin reaction. Symptoms may include:

  • rash
  • redness
  • swelling of your skin

Liver problems. Symptoms may include:

yellowing of the whites of your eyes or skin

stomach swelling

pain in the upper right portion of your stomach

  • Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis. These are gas-filled cysts on the wall of your intestines. They can cause intestinal problems, such as holes, blockage, or bleeding. Symptoms may include:
  • diarrhea
  • mucus discharge
  • rectal bleeding
  • constipation

These symptoms often subside as your body adjusts to the medications. Please notify your provider if side effects persist. For a complete list of side effects, review the medication packaging inserts.

DRUG INTERACTIONS

As with other medications, Ozempic® can interact with alcohol and certain prescription and non-prescription medications and herbal products. The risk of hypoglycemia is increased when combined with insulin or insulin secretagogues such as sulfonylureas. Ozempic® delays gastric emptying and may impact the absorption of oral medications. If you are on thyroid hormone medication, prior to starting Ozempic®, please review the timing of taking your thyroid hormone medication with the doctor who prescribes it as it may need to be adjusted. The drug levels of medications with narrow therapeutic windows (ie warfarin) should be monitored closely while on Ozempic®.

Please consult the pharmaceutical packaging for a full list of side effects, warnings, interactions and additional information.

To report suspected adverse reactions to Ozempic® contact the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

In case of emergencies, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
