Dear Valued Patient,
As you may be aware, Compounded GLP-1 medications have been available due to the ongoing FDA declaration that the commercial medications have been in a shortage situation. Essentially, since 2022, demand has been greater than supply. In December, the FDA declared Tirzepatide as no longer in a shortage situation. In February they made the same declaration about Semaglutide. The trade group Outsourcing Facilities Association (OFA) has filed a Federal lawsuit against the FDA and asked for an emergency injunction. Both of those injuctions have been denied by the courts. While the lawsuit is still pending, it appears that May 22nd, 2025 will be when compounders will have to cease taking new orders for Semaglutide. Tirzepatide was no longer allowed to be produced after March 19. We will be able to dispense what we have on hand and we made a large purchase to be able to take care of you. We are looking at several options going forward and will be transparent with everything. Please call with any questions you may have. Thank you.
