Why patients choose Heally for Zepbound
You may have read about Zepbound and want to know whether it is right for you. The practical questions are how to get a prescription and what it costs. Heally removes both barriers with a same-day telehealth consultation and transparent pricing from the first visit.
See if you qualifyAre you a candidate for Zepbound?
Most adults who qualify have one or more of the following:
- BMI of 30 or higher
- BMI of 27 or higher with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, or dyslipidemia
- Adult aged 18 or over
- Comfortable with once-weekly self-injection and cold storage
- No personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or MEN 2 syndrome
Zepbound is contraindicated with a personal or family history of MTC or MEN 2, requires refrigeration, and is not approved under 18. If injections are a barrier, the Wegovy pill (oral semaglutide) is an alternative worth discussing at your free consultation.
Not sure if you qualify? Our physicians review your full history at the free consultation. Your provider decides whether treatment is appropriate.
How much weight can you lose with Zepbound?
Zepbound 15 mg
Average weight loss: 20.9%
Zepbound 10 mg
Average weight loss: 19.5%
Individual results vary. Weight loss depends on dose, adherence, diet, and activity. Your doctor will set realistic goals at the free consultation.
Thinking about switching to Zepbound?
Switching to Zepbound from semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) is common at Heally, particularly for patients who have plateaued or want to try the dual GIP and GLP-1 mechanism. There is no required washout period from semaglutide before starting tirzepatide. At your free consultation, your physician will determine a suitable starting dose, typically 2.5 mg, to minimise any GI adjustment during the transition. Already on Mounjaro and want to switch to Zepbound? Both contain tirzepatide; the difference is the FDA indication and sometimes the pricing structure, and your doctor can advise.

At your free consultation, your Heally doctor reviews your current dose and any labs you have, and picks up where your previous provider left off. No gap in treatment. No restarting from scratch.

Zepbound vs other weight loss medications: what is the difference?
How does it compare to similar medications?
| Medication | Mechanism | Dosing | Avg. weight loss | Route |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zepbound (tirzepatide) |
Dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | 20.9% at 15 mg (SURMOUNT-1, 72 weeks) | Injection |
| Wegovy (semaglutide injection) |
GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | 14.9% (STEP 1, 68 weeks) | Injection |
| Wegovy pill (oral semaglutide) |
GLP-1 agonist | Once daily | 13.6% (OASIS 4, 64 weeks) | Oral |
| Mounjaro (tirzepatide) |
Dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | Not approved for weight loss | Injection |
Zepbound vs Wegovy (injectable semaglutide)
In the head-to-head SURMOUNT-5 trial, Zepbound produced more weight loss than Wegovy (20.2% vs 13.7% at 72 weeks). Both are once-weekly injections. Wegovy has a longer real-world record (approved 2021 vs 2023), and cost via savings programs is broadly comparable.
Zepbound vs the Wegovy pill (oral semaglutide)
Zepbound is a weekly injection that requires refrigeration. The Wegovy pill avoids needles and refrigeration and starts at $149 per month (starter dose); in OASIS 4 it produced 13.6% average weight loss vs 2.2% with placebo at 64 weeks. The two were not compared head to head, and your doctor can help you decide which fits.
Zepbound vs Mounjaro
Zepbound and Mounjaro are the same molecule (tirzepatide) with different FDA indications: Mounjaro is approved for type 2 diabetes and Zepbound for chronic weight management. Pricing and insurance coverage can differ between the two, and your doctor can advise on which applies to you.
