As of March 19 (for tirzepatide) and April 22 (for semaglutide), compounding pharmacies can no longer sell cheap Ozempic
or the related drugs.
It will cost a lot of people $1000/mo if they want to stay on it. I'm guessing tons of people will stop taking it in the next month or two.

15% of Americans have taken a GLP-1 for weight loss so this certainly effects

Compounded GLP-1s are eventually going away, but they'll be around for a while after those dates
