What to expect: dosing & side effects

GLP-1 medications are given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, starting at a low dose that your provider increases gradually over several weeks to limit side effects. Most Foster City patients self-inject at home after a short demonstration.

The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, constipation, decreased appetite and mild injection-site reactions — usually mild and fading over the first few weeks. Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid concerns; GLP-1s should not be used by people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. Your provider reviews your full history before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions

GLP-1 treatment in Foster City, California

Yes. Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound are prescription-only. A licensed provider — online or at a Foster City clinic — reviews your medical history and BMI, then prescribes the appropriate pen. A free online assessment can confirm your eligibility in minutes.

GLP-1 pens are injected under the skin once a week, rotating between the abdomen, thigh and upper arm. The needle is short (4–5 mm) and the injection is nearly painless. Store the pen refrigerated and follow the dose schedule your Foster City provider sets, which starts low and increases gradually.

GLP-1 pricing in Foster City depends on the option. Brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound run about $950–$1,400/month without insurance, though manufacturer savings cards can cut that sharply for eligible California patients. Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide via telehealth is the most affordable cash-pay route, with all-inclusive plans from around $199/month.

Coverage varies widely by plan in California. Many commercial plans cover Mounjaro for diabetes and Wegovy/Zepbound for weight management with prior authorization. Medicare Part D may cover diabetes indications but generally not weight-loss use. A Foster City provider can verify benefits and file prior authorization.

Some weight regain is common after stopping, with patients often regaining a portion within a year. Providers usually recommend gradual tapering and building sustainable habits while on the medication. Your Foster City provider can design a long-term or maintenance plan.

Medication ships directly to your home in Foster City, California in temperature-controlled, discreet packaging, typically within 2–3 business days of approval. Needles, syringes and alcohol wipes are included.
