FAQ’s: Compounded Semaglutide:

Q: Is Compounded Semaglutide FDA Approved?

A: Semaglutide is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of both type II diabetes and weight management. The form of Semaglutide we prescribe through our compounding pharmacy partner is similar to the foundational molecule that serves as the active ingredient for Novo Nordisk’s prescription-only, FDA-approved medicines Wegovy®, Ozempic® and Rybelsus®.
(Note: Compounded Semaglutide is not affiliated with Novo Nordisk, the manufacturer of Ozempic® and Wegovy®)

Q: What is a Compounding Pharmacy? What is Compounded Medication?

A: Compounding pharmacies are pharmacies that specialize in custom made medications for patients whose needs aren’t met by commercially available products or general retail pharmacies. This can be for a multitude of reasons including a need for alternative doses, allergies (to dyes, inactive ingredients in commercial products, etc.), ease of use, lower cost, and others. Medications from compounding pharmacies use the same active pharmaceutical ingredients as would be procured from a retail pharmacy.

Q: Is Compounded Semaglutide Safe?

A: The compounded Semaglutide we prescribe is manufactured using the highest quality Semaglutide source available. The medication comes from a manufacturer and supplier that is Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) certified, FDA inspected, and utilizing domestic active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). The manufacture utilized has FDA approval to make Semaglutide powder for patient use in contrast to some suppliers which are solely able to sell their product for “research purposes only.”
Every batch of Semaglutide made by our pharmacy partner goes to a testing facility to test sterility, potency, absence of toxins or impurities, and more. Our partner uses a high standard 1% variance rule on medication concentration for Semaglutide injections and only once a passing test is received are patient prescriptions filled.

Q: Does JumpstartMD’s Pharmacy Partner for Compounded Semaglutide Use Safe, Best in Class Manufacturing Practices?

A: Yes. Our compounded Semaglutide pharmacy partner prides itself on using only quality sourced pharmaceutical ingredients from the top suppliers in the industry such as PCCA, Letco, and Medisca. All raw pharmaceutical ingredients for, in this case Semaglutide, come with a certificate of analysis and are made into medications using formulas created by expert pharmacists that have been tested and proven to be effective and safe.
